7.3 Opt. 3 - Local Time Display / Output
This factory firmware option provides for display of local time on the front panel of NTS01 and
also allows local time to be output on the P5 (IRIG-B) output for use in synchronising other
vendors’ equipment if required. See NTS01 configuration – Section .. for details on setting the
local time and daylight savings parameters. Note: Other NTS01 units configured for Slave
operation that use the P5 signal for synching purposes, will
always correctly interpret this signal,
regardless of the local time setting.
7.4 Opt. 4 - Lightning Protection Kit
A lightning Protection kit is available for fitting into the antenna lead-in cable. The kit contains a
protection device, two coaxial cable connectors, a connector crimp tool, and mounting hardware
for the protection device. Full instructions relating to the installation and maintenance of the
lightning protector are included with the kit, together with some guidelines as to best positioning
of the antenna and protector unit to minimize the possibility of lightning-induced damage to the
TCG 01 base unit.
