Note: Oscillators are installed at the factory, in accordance with order spe-
cifications; an oscillator cannot be swapped/retrofitted later in the product
life cycle (with the exception of repairs).
The Rubidium oscillator is atomic in nature but requires no MSDS (Material Safety Data
Sheet).
Note: External Oscillator : It is possible for an external oscillator to be
locked to SecureSync's 10MHz output via an external PLL, with the lock
state of the external PLL monitored by SecureSync. Contact Orolia for
more information.
3.5.2 Configuring the Oscillator

1.
Navigate to MANAGEMENT > OTHER: Disciplining.
2.
Click the GEAR icon at the top of the Status panel. The Oscillators Settings win-
dow will display:
3.
Populate the fields:
Maximum TFOM for Sync: When TFOM (Time Figure of Merit, see also
"Time Figure of Merit (TFOM)" on the facing page) is greater than Max
TFOM, disciplining will still be attempted against the selected reference to
improve the TFOM. If the condition persists, the system will transition to
230
