Figure 3-4. Receiver Status Screen Displaying Holdover Operation
In the SYNCHRONIZATION area, you can see that the Receiver has
gone into holdover as indicated by >> marker that is pointing at the
Holdover line. The status screen indicates that the reason the Receiver
is in holdover is because the GPS 1 PPS reference signal is invalid.
You would expect this since the antenna has been disconnected.
The status screen shows loss of the GPS signal. As you can see on the
screen, all of the satellites in the Tracking column moved into the Not
Tracking column.
The status screen in Figure 3-4 shows that the Receiver has been in
holdover operation for 14 seconds.
If the Receiver SmartClock had had enough time to learn the internal
oscillator characteristics, the Receiver Status Screen would show that
the Receiver went into holdover, and the Receiver’s outputs were
maintained during holdover by the SmartClock.
