The Frequency Measurement (Freq Meas) option: measures an external frequency applied to the J3
input relative to the XLi’s disciplined frequency.
See “F113 – J3 Input (Aux Ref, Freq Meas)” on page 146.
1 PPS – Pulse Per Second Output
If a time reference is unavailable, 1 PPS is as stable as the frequency reference (e.g., the system
oscillator or Aux Ref).
CODE – Time Code Output
Time Code Output Specifications - Modulated (AM) and Demodulated (DC or DCLS)
Many IRIG reader devices only decode the BCD time-of-year (TOY) portion of the IRIG frame. Reader
devices designed to the IRIG-B122, B002, A132, A002 standard should be compatible with the XLi’s
time code outputs.
