2.9.3 Disable the GPS Tracking Alarms
When using the system with manual time recovery, users can set the system up to ignore the GPS Tracking
Alarms normally set when the system is not tracking GPS. This can be done by setting the timeout to
ZERO.
4380A> gps_tracking_timeout 0
To confirm the system settings, use the settings gps:tracking_timeout command.
4380A>settings gps:tracking_timeout
0

Setting the timeout to zero is only recommended with time sources other than GPS. This setting will
inhibit the GPS Tracking alarm even if the unit is using GPS as the time source.
2.10 User Configuration Files
The 4380A provides the flexibility of operating using different user configurations. Users are able to save
these configurations for system settings and ftp | real-time data logging and recall them when needed via
the command port.
2.10.1 Factory / Default User Configuration Files
The 4380A will boot up with the FACTORY configuration settings automatically and will continue to use
these settings until any changes to the configuration are made and saved as the user default settings
(default). To save the user default file simply type save and press enter. This will save the updated
configuration and the 4380A will boot up (either from power on or after a reboot/restart command) using
the settings in the user default file. To see if the user settings have been saved, use the list command to
obtain a list of the possible user configuration files. If there are no user configuration files available the
system will report no files.
4380A>list 4380A>list
default or no files
The user default file is used at start up if it is present, otherwise the unit will start up with the factory
default file. Users are encouraged to set AND save their default system settings based on their application
so the system will start up properly when powered up or after a reboot or restart.
Users can create other configuration files. Simply make the desired changes to the system configuration,
type save and a filename to identify the configuration, and press enter. The system will save this
configuration containing the new settings. To use this configuration file, use the list command to bring up a
list of the possible configuration files, and use the load command to have the system load and start running
with the desired user configuration settings. Use the settings command to ensure the system is using the
desired settings based on the newly loaded configuration file.

The system will recognize case sensitive alphanumeric characters, -, ‘ ‘, and _. If any other characters are
used, the system will inform the user that the filename is not valid and will not save the settings.
