Title: Symmetricom XLi : No GPS
Post by: comsec22 on May 22, 2023, 08:02:14 pm

In my unit (1510-652) the GPS boars is not recognize by F118 Option Board Configuration menu.
Few led on the gps is flashing.. except D1 (always off). 8)
In the main display, time counting is not starting, seems like there is not a reference clock..
I am also wondering why, the only communications is by serial port but not on the ethernet port.. really odd behavior. 
Any idea about the internal P2 coax plug ?

Any support is really appreciate..

Trying to remove Furuno's receiver, the  GPS module become to be available from processor board. Re assembling, now SV will be recieve.
Position is correct, but no way to get right time and date.

I also discover, that ebay's seller, has remove one board.. the one between the rubidium and the mother board.
Any diagrams to duplicate ?
