5.4.5.3 NTP Server Configuration
It is possible to give the IP address of the NTP server, if the system time of the Ground Station shall
be synchronised via NTP.
5.4.5.4 Temperature
Reading of the temperature inside the Ground Station can be requested periodically. The procedure
to enable/disable the polling and to change the polling rate is the same as for the BITE status polling
parameter.
The temperature progress is shown in a diagram together with the temperature warning threshold as
dashed line. Pointing with the mouse into the diagram shows the temperature recorded at the indi-
cated position as a tool tip.
The threshold defines the temperature level in degrees of Celsius that must not be transgressed. If
this threshold is reached, the status of the Ground Station changes to WARNING, provided that the
temperature BITE mechanism is enabled and the ’BITE Status’ is retrieved, e.g. by polling.
Note that the threshold check is part of the BITE tests and always performed, if enabled, no matter,
whether temperature polling is enabled. Polling of temperature is only used for the visualization of the
temperature progress.
