What: /sys/class/timecard/ocpN/sma1 What: /sys/class/timecard/ocpN/sma2 What: /sys/class/timecard/ocpN/sma3 What: /sys/class/timecard/ocpN/sma4 Date: September 2021 Contact: Jonathan Lemon Description: (RW) These attributes specify the direction of the signal on the associated SMA connectors, and also the signal sink or source. The display format of the attribute is a space separated list of signals, prefixed by the input/output direction. The signal direction may be changed (if supported) by prefixing the signal list with either "in:" or "out:". If neither prefix is present, then the direction is unchanged. The output signal may be changed by writing one of the listed values from the available_sma_outputs attribute set. The input destinations may be changed by writing multiple values from the available_sma_inputs attribute set, separated by spaces. If there are duplicated input destinations between connectors, the lowest numbered SMA connector is given priority. Note that not all input combinations may make sense. The 10Mhz reference clock input is currently only valid on SMA1 and may not be combined with other destination sinks. What: /sys/class/timecard/ocpN/tod_correction Date: March 2022 Contact: Jonathan Lemon Description: (RW) The incoming GNSS signal is in UTC time, and the NMEA format messages do not provide a TAI offset. This sets the correction value for the incoming time. If UBX_LS is enabled, this should be 0, and the offset is taken from the UBX-NAV-TIMELS message. What: /sys/class/timecard/ocpN/ts_window_adjust Date: September 2021 Contact: Jonathan Lemon Description: (RW) When retrieving the PHC with the PTP SYS_OFFSET_EXTENDED ioctl, a system timestamp is made before and after the PHC time is retrieved. The midpoint between the two system timestamps is usually taken to be the SYS time associated with the PHC time. This estimate may be wrong, as it depends on PCI latencies, and when the PHC time was latched The attribute value reduces the end timestamp by the given number of nanoseconds, so the computed midpoint matches the retrieved PHC time. The initial value is set based on measured PCI latency and the estimated point where the FPGA latches the PHC time. This value may be changed by writing an unsigned integer. What: /sys/class/timecard/ocpN/ttyGNSS What: /sys/class/timecard/ocpN/ttyGNSS2 Date: September 2021 Contact: Jonathan Lemon Description: These optional attributes link to the TTY serial ports associated with the GNSS devices.

What: /sys/class/timecard/ocpN/ttyNMEA Date: September 2021 Contact: Jonathan Lemon Description: This optional attribute links to the TTY serial port which outputs the PHC time in NMEA ZDA format. What: /sys/class/timecard/ocpN/utc_tai_offset Date: September 2021 Contact: Jonathan Lemon Description: (RW) The DCF and IRIG output signals are in UTC, while the TimeCard operates on TAI. This attribute allows setting the offset in seconds, which is added to the TAI timebase for these formats. The offset may be changed by writing an unsigned integer.
