Output Data Timing Relative to Measurement Epoch (Continued)
The Position/Status/Data Message and the
Time RAIM Setup and Status Message are the only output messages containing time
information. If enabled, these messages will be output from the receiver shortly after
a measurement epoch. Generally, the first data byte in the first message will be
output between 0 to 50 ms after a measurement epoch. For the Position/Status/Data
Message, the time output in the message reflects the best estimate of the most
recent measurement epoch. A simple timing diagram is shown in figure 3.12.
IPPS Cable Delay and IPPS Offset (UT Model Only)
1PPS Cable Delay and 1PPS OfFset (M12 Timing and UT Model
Only)
Users can compensate for antenna cable length with the 1PPS Cable Delay
command. The IPPS can also be positioned anywhere in the one second window
using the 1PPS Offset command. The rising edge of the IPPS is placed so that it
corresponds to the time indicated by the following equation:
1PPS rising edge time = top of second -1PPS cable delay + 1PPS offset
Consider the following example:
Top of second = 10.000000000 s
1PPS cable delay = 0.000654321 s
1PPS offset = 0.100000000 s
1PPS rising edge time = 10.099345679 s
The rising edge of the IPPS signal is adjusted so that it occurs corresponding to the
fractional part of time equal to the total above. The fractional part of time is measured
relative to UTC or GPS time depending on the setting of the Time Mode.
