Product Description

The Model GS-102B-FPC GPS/IRIG-B Synchronized Time Code Generator (STCG) is a low cost high performance STCG that provides many features typically found on higher cost units. When operated in the GPS mode, time and rates are precisely referenced to UTC. When operated in the IRIG mode, time and rates are precisely referenced to the IRIG generating source. Time, position and status are available on the RS-232 I/O and the USB Ports.

Housed in a weather resistant rugged case, the Model GS-102B-FPC STCG is ideal for providing time, rates and position information to camera, power utility, computer and other portable applications. The GS-102B-FPC can drive large format wall and console time displays. Its rugged packaging is ideal for portable or dynamic applications. Rechargeable internal batteries provide more than 24 hours of operation. Optional external connectors and an observation window in the lid allow for closed-case operation.

The time is referenced to UTC when operating in the GPS mode. The RS-232 and manual control allow the user to configure the unit to provide local or daylight savings time or to configure the programmable pulse.
