2. PREPARATION FOR USE

Before using the equipment, it is necessary to perform the operations described below.

2.1. CONNECTIONS

The following connections must be made:

 Connect the equipment to the DC power via the supplied DC cord.

 Connect the GNSS antenna cable to the antenna input of the equipment.

 Connect the equipment to the remote management network ("LAN" connector) with a RJ45 network

cable.

Important: Power on the equipment only after all connections has been made.

2.2. CONFIGURATION

Configuration parameters must be setup with consistent values to allow proper use of the equipment. Those settings

are in files located within an SDCard inserted in the back of the equipment.

The parameters available to the user are located in the "user.ini" file. This file is within the SDCard directory

“TMS1000” when mounted using a PC, and within “/config” when accessed through remote access (console or

network).

The following table lists the parameters by functional chapter the same way they are laid out within the configuration

file. The procedure to change the settings is described in an appendix to this document.

Important: Please do not modify files other parameters than those listed below under penalty of breaking the

equipment’s operation, except if the support staff of Timelink microsystems invites you to do so.

3. GETTING STARTED

3.1. POWERING UP

The equipment starts when the power is applied to the unit. There is no ON/OFF switch.

Notes:

1. During the boot sequence, the top panel LEDS are switched off during 15 seconds after power is applied.

2. Because of the very low consumption, following power off, one must wait 30 seconds before powering on

again. Otherwise a corrupted boot may occur.

3.2. LEDS

3.2.1. LEDS AT STARTUP

During the boot sequence, LEDS displays boot progress or an error code. Below is the summary of the different

options.

ON GNSS SYNC ALARM Description

Yellow Off Off Off SDCard mounting

Red Red Red Red SDCard missing or not seen

Green Yellow Off Off SDCard configuration reading

Red Off Off Red Network configuration error (IP address not defined)

Off Red Off Red Network configuration error (subnet mask not defined)

Off Off Red Red Network configuration error (MAC address not defined)

Green Green Yellow Off Network services starting

Green Green Blue Off Network services configuration (first boot only)

Green Green Green Yellow Application starting

GNSS Red No GNSS source

Yellow The time source is available but excluded

Green The time source is operational and selected as the reference time source

Off GNSS source is not activated

SYNC Red Not GNSS synchronized

Green GNSS synchronized

ALARM Green No alarm ( Information message may be displayed)

Yellow At least one Warning Alarm type

Red At least one Error Alarm type

Tableau 2 – LEDS during operations

3.3. INTERFACES

Below interfaces are available:

 1 PPS signal output

 1 Ethernet 100Mbits connector

 1 SDCard Reader

 A 4 LEDS display

Several services are available on the Ethernet interface:

 IP v4 NTP service

 IP v4 SSH

 HTTP server

 UDP v4 server

3.3.1. NTP SERVICE

This service allows synchronizing an NTP client. The generated time is the one calculated by the equipment based

on one of the source connected to the equipment.

The NTP server is NTPV3 and V4 compliant; depending on its configuration whenever no reliable time is available it

can either not answer or answer with the LEAP flag.

3.3.2. SSH ACCESS

This service allows to remotely connecting to the equipment in secure mode through a network.

Only the 'maintenance' user is authorized to connect to the equipment. After a successful connection, a shell is

opened. Being a maintenance mode, the user must take care of its actions as they can result in the equipment no

longer being able to serve its primary functions.

The following commands are available:

 update the software

 modify the password of a user

 restart or stop the equipment

 connect as 'root'

The default password for both accounts is 'timelink'.

3.3.2.1. SYSTEM SOFTWARE UPDATE

The system software update is done using the provided 'update' tool. See the Maintenance section for the

procedure.

3.3.2.2. CHANGE PASSWORD

To change the password for a user, use the command 'passwd <user>'. The system will ask for the new

password and it will be written in encrypted format in a file on the SDCard.

Note:

 The maintenance user password must be by the standard password rules as displayed when requested.

 The root user can bypass the standard password rules.

3.3.2.3. RESTART OR STOP THE EQUIPEMENT

These functions allows for securely restart or stop the equipment. The user must first log in as 'root'.

To restart, use the 'reboot' command; to stop, use 'poweroff'.

After a 'poweroff' the equipment can be switched off.

3.3.2.4. CHANGE TO USER 'root'

The command below allows a user to change to user ‘root’:

Type '/tools/su' and enter the 'root' password.

3.3.3. SERIAL CONSOLE ACCESS

Access to the system can also be made from the Console port by connecting a terminal emulator. Use the following

configuration:

 baud rate 115200

 8 bits, 1 stop bit, no parity

After logging in with the login/password used to gain SSH access, a shell is opened. The same commands as those

described in the SSH chapter can be issued.

4. MONITORING

The equipment can be monitored through the integrated Web server, SNMP or by receiving a UDP frame

containing operation information about the equipment.
