I am doing an experiment involving two devices.
Device A is a GPS which only outputs serial data and 1 pps
Device B is a Rubidium Oscillator which accepts 1 pps, and spits out (corrected) pps and 10MHz.
Independently, they both seem to work fine. No anomalous behaviors as reported by Lady Heather.
However, when I connect 1 pps from A to 1 pps INPUT in B, odd things happen. At this time, I am monitoring device B using LH. All the sudden, temperature rises to few THOUSAND degrees, loses Physics lock, and few other parameters go NUTS. It only lasts very short period.
I am assuming something is happening with Device A's pps and that is causing Device B to act out.
Are there any device that can record two channels of serial data for 24 hours or more? There ought to be, but I have never seen it. Experiment is still at very early stage. I don't have very much data. So that's all I can offer.
Anyone?
