... Input via keyin format is of the form keyword = value . ... The input keywords are not case sensitive. Most of the values required by SCHED, except for file names in case sensitive systems like unix, are also not case sensitive. keywords are, in all cases, limited to 8 characters in length. ... Keyin values can be mathematical statements in parenthesis; for example, dur = 15 rep = (4*5) This example shows the most likely way in which this capability might be used in SCHED input files. ...

Some radio clocks and related timekeeping gear have a pulse-per- second (PPS) signal that can be used to discipline the local clock oscillator to a high degree of precision, typically to the order less than 50 us in time and 0.1 PPM in frequency. ... Either way requires conversion of the PPS signal, usually at TTL levels, to RS232 levels, which can be done using a circuit such as described in the Gadget Box PPS Level Converter and CHU Modem page. ...

DIGITAL WDC EXCHANGE FORMAT . FOR OBSERVATORY 1.0 MINUTE VALUES 1. ... DATA-1 .. DATA-60 are 1-minute values of the given element for that hour. ... Typically, digital 1-minute values received by WDCs from organizations operating automatic magnetic observatory instruments are averages of more frequendy sampled values, e.g. 10-second point samples. ... If the method used to obtain 1-minute average values is important to a user, the WDC will assist in determining the exact procedure applied. ...
