Model 1093A/B/C GPS Satellite-Controlled Clock (500 ns)

Model 1093A/B/C delivers better than 500 ns accuracy and includes the most highly sought after features in a precision time clock as standard.

With two terminal strip outputs providing unmodulated IRIG-B and 1 PPS signals, the 1093 is capable of driving multiple loads in parallel. An optional modulated IRIG-B port is available adding greater flexibility.

Like other Arbiter clock models, various options are available to add features such as NTP (Network Time Protocol) & IEEE1588 PTPv2 support, four additional configurable outputs, high drive IRIG-B outputs, power system time, frequency, and Phase Monitor functions, one Form C (SPDT) fail-safe, LOCKED relay that is compatible with 129 Vdc digital fault recorder inputs; plus many more.

  • Accuracy< ±500 ns typical
  • Unmodulated IRIG-B and 1 PPS included, modulated IRIG-B optional
  • Internal NTP & IEEE1588 (PTPv2) server, dual Ethernet ports (optional)
  • High Drive IRIG-B outputs (optional)
  • One Form C (SPDT) fail-safe locked relay (optional)
  • Power System Time, Frequency and Phase Monitor (optional)
  • 1093A supports four LEDs for monitoring operating status.
  • 1093B adds to the LEDs an LCD display and keypad, providing easy access to setup and system status information.
  • 1093C includes both the operating status LEDs, the LCD display and keypad, and includes a large LED time display.

Produktinformation

Receiver Characteristics

Timing Accuracy

Accuracy Note Specifications apply at the 1 PPS output, in the presence of Selective Availability (SA), as of date of publication
Accuracy UTC/USNO ± 500 ns peak

Position Accuracy

10 meters, rms, 90 % confidence

Satellite Tracking

Twelve (12) channel, C/A code (1575.42 MHz). Receiver simultaneously tracks up to twelve satellites. Results from all tracked satellites are averaged in Position-Hold Mode or, with Position-Hold Mode off, using least-squares estimation.

Acquisition

  • 150 seconds typical, cold start
  • 15 minutes, 90 % confidence, cold start
  • 40 seconds, with almanac less than 1 month old
  • 15 seconds, with ephemeris less than 4 hours old
  • The GPS Data Backup Battery is now included in the Model 1093s. This feature improves acquisition time to as little as 15 seconds after a brief power loss by supplying constant power to the real-time clock and RAM in the GPS receiver module.

I/O Configuration

Output Connectors

Two standard: one IRIG-B Unmodulated and one 1 PPS; Type: bus driver, 5 V CMOS; 10 ohms source impedance; ± 75 mA drive capability; pluggable terminal strip.
Open-drain FET drivers (400 V, 220 mA, 1 W power dissipation) can also be fitted; contact tech support.

Event Inputs

One event timer channel with 1 µs resolution is standard. This function may be driven by the start bit of a received character on the serial port, or (by internal connection) an external 5 V CMOS/TTL signal at one of the terminal strip connectors.

Programmable Pulse Output

One programmable output pulse (by a jumper connection) that may be output on a terminal strip connector or the AUX OUT pin on either RS-232 Port.
Four modes:

  • Every 1 second to 60,000 seconds, starts top of the minute
  • Hourly at a specified offset
  • Daily at a specified time of day
  • One shot at a specified time of year

Pulse duration is programmable from 0.01 seconds to 600 seconds, except in one-shot mode, where the output is Low prior to the specified time and High thereafter.
