Options - Option 17 Parallel BCD with Second RS-232 Port

Summary Information

Adds an RS-232 channel to the 'Parallel BCD Output'. Available on the Models 1084 and 1088.

Full Description

Option 17 for the standard Model 1084A/B/C and 1088A/B clocks expand the capabilities of the instrument to include:

• Either of the following:
  • Time-of-year output in Binary-Coded Decimal (BCD) format, with resolution down to 1 millisecond; or
  • Parallel Data output, with up to 48 bits that can be custom-configured at the factory for specific applications
• A continuous 1 pulse-per-second (1 PPS) output, with the rising edge of a 10 millisecond-wide pulse synchronous to the rising edge of 1 PPS/GPS;
• A continuous 1,000 PPS (1 kPPS) square wave output, with rising edges synchronous to the rising edge of 1 PS/GPS;
• Four pins of the output connector that can be configured with combinations* of the following:
  • Up to four digital signal outputs, the functions of which can be selected individually from 18 choices.
  • Up to two analog signal outputs, the functions of which can be selected individually from two choices.
  • An RS-232C serial communications port, which can use between two and four lines.

*Note: Since these auxiliary functions must share four connector pins, certain limitations will apply when selecting combinations:

• Enabling any one (or more) of the digital signal outputs precludes four bits from the parallel data output, if used;
• Each analog signal output used precludes one of the digital signal outputs; if two analog signal outputs are employed, only two digital signal outputs are possible. Also, each analog signal output displaces one bit from the parallel data interface, if used;
• A two- or four-wire RS-232C port configuration uses two or four of the data output lines, so these lines become unavailable for digital and/or analog signal outputs, or for the assigned data bits of the parallel output (if used).
