ATTENTION: must be used 5.5/2.1 DC plus,if used 5.5/2.5 will poor contact.

Front is a LCD,display machine state.
4.3 Connect PC
GPSDO-DB9        PC-DB9
PIN2--------------------PIN2
PIN3--------------------PIN3
PIN5--------------------PIN5
PIN8--------------------PIN8
GPSDO-DB9 PIN2,PIN5,PIN8 is connect to PC-DB9 PIN2,PIN5,PIN8,
Baud rate is  9600BPS,Baud rate is fixed.

4.4 Rear panel work state:
Power up : three led all on,all off,then RUN flash,GPS LOCK led off,WARN led on.
Power up current: less than 1.5 A.
Preheat: on board there is a OCXO,OCXO preheat need 30 minute.After a period of time,the current will slowly become small.Until GPS LOCK led on,WARN led off,means the equipment is normal
Normal: RUN led flash,GPS LOCK led on.WARN led off,means GPSDO running normal.When WARN led off,the accuracy is less than 0.05Hz@10MHz,keep GPS lock for 5 hours,the accuracy is less than 0.005Hz@10MHz.

4.5 Front panel LCD state:
Used 1602 LCD, display area there is two line,every line there is 16 character.
GPS signal strength display,First line 1,2 character,display GPS signal strength,first character is antenna mark,all display,second character is GPS signal strength,there is 6 step.from strength weak to strong is empty,1dot,2dots,2+3dots,2+3+4dots,2+3+4+5dots.
Character display area,6character,can via command to setting.
time display area, 8 characters,can via command setting
Disciplined state display,1 character,when system is accuary,display L,else not display.
Referenec output frequency display area,15 character.
Power up,LCD dots all on,then all off,check lcd is good or bad.
then display
GPSDO UTC +/- XX:XX display UTC offset
BG7TBL V20171210 display author and version
complete,enter normal display mode
If GPS not fix,LCD bottom will display GPS NO FIX

4.6 Display mode setting command
Setting display frequency mode,6 character,UTC offset,need short inside PCB jump.

Baud rate is 9600BPS,data bit 8,stop bit 1,Check bit NONE,flow control NONE.
Command is star with $GPGTC,end with T*,middle is 12 byte command.

4.7 Use notes:
LCD display frequency is reference only,there is deviation with actual output.
Gpsdo long time on line,the surface of the machine is warn, This kind of phenomenon is normal.
GPS antenna avoid interference,avoid high voltage,avoid lighting.put antenna to open sky.one line sky can lock,but the accuracy and jitter is worse.

Signal flow:1575M signal come from GPS antenna,input the GPS module,GPS output 1PPS and NMEA GPS lock signal.Used 1PPS for gate via CPLD and MCU output EFC signal,correct the OCXO output frequency.

FAQ:
1.Q : how can I know the machine is good.
  A : power on times,red led off,machine is good.

2. Q : how can I know MCU is good.
   A : when power on,all LED will on,then RUN led flash,red LED on,means MCU is good.

3. Q:5m GPS active antenna is short,how to do.can not connect GPS antenna?
   A : Used GPS extended line,such as 5m,10m,15m,20m extended line.can not used GPS antenna,it is a OCXO.

4. Q: i used frequency counter test frequency is difference with LCD display frequency,what can i do?
   A:LCD display frequency is reference only,actual test there is deviation.when LCD display L10000000.000xHz or other L frequency,frequency is accuary.Make sure test frequency standard is less than 0.001Hz accuary else is the frequency standard deviation.
   Q: GPS strength is change some time is high some time is low
   A:that is right,Because the signal intensity is affected by the satellite position,the weather and the Algorithm.
