Safran SecureSync 2400 - Signature Control

2.22 Signature Control
Signature Control is a user- set parameter that controls under which output
states an output will be present. This feature allows you to determine how closely
you want to link an output to the status of the active input reference e.g., by deac-
tivating it after holdover expiration. It is also offers the capability to indirectly
send an input-reference-lost-alarm to a downstream recipient via the presence of
the signal.
E X A M P L E S :
You can setup Signature Control such that SecureSync's built in 1PPS output becomes
disabled the moment its input reference is lost (e.g., if a valid GNSS signal is lost).
Or, you can setup your output signal such that remains valid while SecureSync in hold-
over mode, but not in free run.
The available options are:
I.
Output Always Enabled—The output is present, even if SecureSync is not
synchronized to its references (SecureSync is free running).
II.
Output Enabled in Holdover—The output is present unless SecureSync is
not synchronized to its references (SecureSync is in Holdover mode).
III.
Output Disabled in Holdover—The 1PPS output is present unless the
SecureSync references are considered not qualified and invalid (the output
is NOT present while SecureSync is in Holdover mode.)
IV.
Output Always Disabled—The output is never present, even if SecureSync
references are present and valid.
