<STATUS> Clock Status “L” = Locked
“U” = Unlocked
The Clock Status indicator reports
“Locked” when the SyncServer S6x0
clock is locked to a reference source
(e.g., GPS, IRIG, etc.). This is the
normal operational state of the clock.
While locked, the clock steers its internal
oscillator to the reference source.
The Clock Status indicator reports
“Unlocked” when the SyncServer S6x0
clock is not locked to a reference
source. This may be because the
reference source is unlocked or
unstable. While unlocked from a
reference source, the SyncServer S6x0
uses its internal oscillator to keep time
until a reference becomes available
again.
