If there are duplicated input 225 destinations between connectors, the lowest numbered SMA 226 connector is given priority. 227 228 Note that not all input combinations may make sense. 229 230 The 10Mhz reference clock input is currently only valid 231 on SMA1 and may not be combined with other destination sinks. 232 233What: /sys/class/timecard/ocpN/tod_correction 234Date: March 2022 235Contact: Jonathan Lemon <jonathan.lemon@gmail.com> 236Description: (RW) The incoming GNSS signal is in UTC time, and the NMEA 237 format messages do not provide a TAI offset. This sets the 238 correction value for the incoming time. 239 240 If UBX_LS is enabled, this should be 0, and the offset is 241 taken from the UBX-NAV-TIMELS message. 242 243What: /sys/class/timecard/ocpN/ts_window_adjust 244Date: September 2021 245Contact: Jonathan Lemon <jonathan.lemon@gmail.com> 246Description: (RW) When retrieving the PHC with the PTP SYS_OFFSET_EXTENDED 247 ioctl, a system timestamp is made before and after the PHC 248 time is retrieved. The midpoint between the two system 249 timestamps is usually taken to be the SYS time associated 250 with the PHC time. This estimate may be wrong, as it depends 251 on PCI latencies, and when the PHC time was latched 252 253 The attribute value reduces the end timestamp by the given 254 number of nanoseconds, so the computed midpoint matches the 255 retrieved PHC time. 256 257 The initial value is set based on measured PCI latency and 258 the estimated point where the FPGA latches the PHC time. This 259 value may be changed by writing an unsigned integer. 260 261What: /sys/class/timecard/ocpN/ttyGNSS 262What: /sys/class/timecard/ocpN/ttyGNSS2 263Date: September 2021 264Contact: Jonathan Lemon <jonathan.lemon@gmail.com> 265Description: These optional attributes link to the TTY serial ports 266 associated with the GNSS devices. 267 268What: /sys/class/timecard/ocpN/ttyMAC 269Date: September 2021 270Contact: Jonathan Lemon <jonathan.lemon@gmail.com> 271Description: This optional attribute links to the TTY serial port 272 associated with the Miniature Atomic Clock. 273 274What: /sys/class/timecard/ocpN/ttyNMEA 275Date: September 2021 276Contact: Jonathan Lemon <jonathan.lemon@gmail.com> 277Description: This optional attribute links to the TTY serial port 278 which outputs the PHC time in NMEA ZDA format. 279 280What: /sys/class/timecard/ocpN/utc_tai_offset 281Date: September 2021 282Contact: Jonathan Lemon <jonathan.lemon@gmail.com> 283Description: (RW) The DCF and IRIG output signals are in UTC, while the 284 TimeCard operates on TAI. This attribute allows setting the 285 offset in seconds, which is added to the TAI timebase for 286 these formats. 287 288 The offset may be changed by writing an unsigned integer.
