<h1>XNTP PARSE clock data formats</h1>
<p>The parse driver currently supports several clocks with different
query mechanisms. In order for you to find a sample that might be
similar to a clock you might want to integrate into parse i'll sum
up the major features of the clocks (this information is distributed
in the parse/clk_*.c and xntpd/refclock_parse.c files).

<h2>Meinberg clocks</h2>
<pre>
Meinberg: start=&lt;STX&gt;, end=&lt;ETX&gt;, sync on start
pattern="\2D: . . ;T: ;U: . . ; \3"
pattern="\2 . . ; ; : : ; \3"
pattern="\2 . . ; ; : : ; : ; ; . . "
</pre>
<p>
Meinberg is a german manufacturer of time code receivers. Those clocks
have a pretty common output format in the stock version. In order to
support NTP Meinberg was so kind to produce some special versions of
the firmware for the use with NTP. So, if you are going to use a
Meinberg clock please ask whether there is a special Uni Erlangen
version.
<p>
General characteristics:
<br>
Meinberg clocks primarily output pulse per second and a describing
ASCII string. This string can be produced in two modes. either upon
the reception of a question mark or every second. NTP uses the latter
mechanism. The DCF77 variants have a pretty good relationship between
RS232 time code and the PPS signal while the GPS receiver has no fixed
timeing between the datagram and the pulse (you need to use PPS with
GPS!) on DCF77 you might get away without the PPS signal.
<pre>
The preferred tty setting for Meinberg is:
CFLAG (B9600|CS7|PARENB|CREAD|HUPCL)
IFLAG (IGNBRK|IGNPAR|ISTRIP)
OFLAG 0
LFLAG 0
</pre>
<p>
The clock is run at datagram once per second.
Stock dataformat is:

<p>
For the university of Erlangen a special format was implemented to support
LEAP announcement and anouncement of alternate antenna.
<p>Version for UNI-ERLANGEN Software is: PZFUERL V4.6 (Meinberg)
<p>The use of this software release (or higher) is *ABSOLUTELY*
recommended (ask for PZFUERL version as some minor HW fixes have
been introduced) due to the LEAP second support and UTC indication.
The standard timecode does not indicate when the timecode is in
UTC (by front panel configuration) thus we have no chance to find
the correct utc offset. For the standard format do not ever use
UTC display as this is not detectable in the time code !!!

<h2>Raw DCF77 Data via serial line</h2>
<p>RAWDCF: end=TIMEOUT&gt;1.5s, sync each char (any char),generate psuedo time
codes, fixed format
<p>
direct DCF77 code input
<p>In Europe it is relatively easy/cheap the receive the german time code
transmitter DCF77. The simplest version to process its signal is to
feed the 100/200ms pulse of the demodulated AM signal via a level
converter to an RS232 port at 50Baud. parse/clk_rawdcf.c holds all
necessary decoding logic for the time code which is transmitted each
minute for one minute. A bit of the time code is sent once a second.
<pre>
The preferred tty setting is:
CFLAG (B50|CS8|CREAD|CLOCAL)
IFLAG 0
OFLAG 0
LFLAG 0
</pre>
<h2>DCF77 raw time code</h2>
<p>From "Zur Zeit", Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt (PTB), Braunschweig
und Berlin, M<>rz 1989
<br>
<pre>
Timecode transmission:
AM:
time marks are send every second except for the second before the
next minute mark
time marks consist of a reduction of transmitter power to 25%
of the nominal level
the falling edge is the time indication (on time)
time marks of a 100ms duration constitute a logical 0
time marks of a 200ms duration constitute a logical 1
FM:
see the spec. (basically a (non-)inverted psuedo random phase shift)

<h2>Schmid clock</h2>
<p>
Schmid clock: needs poll, binary input, end='\xFC', sync start
<p>
The Schmid clock is a DCF77 receiver that sends a binary
time code at the reception of a flag byte. The contents
if the flag byte determined the time code format. The
binary time code is delimited by the byte 0xFC.
<PRE>
TTY setup is:
CFLAG (B1200|CS8|CREAD|CLOCAL)
IFLAG 0
OFLAG 0
LFLAG 0
</PRE>
<p> The command to Schmid's DCF77 clock is a single byte; each bit
allows the user to select some part of the time string, as follows (the
output for the lsb is sent first).
<pre>
Bit 0: time in MEZ, 4 bytes *binary, not BCD*; hh.mm.ss.tenths
Bit 1: date 3 bytes *binary, not BCD: dd.mm.yy
Bit 2: week day, 1 byte (unused here)
Bit 3: time zone, 1 byte, 0=MET, 1=MEST. (unused here)
Bit 4: clock status, 1 byte, 0=time invalid,
1=time from crystal backup,
3=time from DCF77
Bit 5: transmitter status, 1 byte,
bit 0: backup antenna
bit 1: time zone change within 1h
bit 3,2: TZ 01=MEST, 10=MET
bit 4: leap second will be
added within one hour
bits 5-7: Zero
Bit 6: time in backup mode, units of 5 minutes (unused here)

<h2>Trimble SV6 ASCII time code (TAIP)</h2>
<p>
Trimble SV6: needs poll, ascii timecode, start='&gt;', end='&lt;',
query='&gt;QTM&lt;', eol='&lt;'
<p> Trimble SV6 is a GPS receiver with PPS output. It needs to be polled.
It also need a special tty mode setup (EOL='&lt;').
<pre>
TTY setup is:
CFLAG (B4800|CS8|CREAD)
IFLAG (BRKINT|IGNPAR|ISTRIP|ICRNL|IXON)
OFLAG (OPOST|ONLCR)
LFLAG (ICANON|ECHOK)
Special flags are:
PARSE_F_PPSPPS - use CIOGETEV for PPS time stamping
PARSE_F_PPSONSECOND - the time code is not related to
the PPS pulse (so use the time code
only for the second epoch)
