As I look at my Tymserve 2100 sitting in the rack to my left, the date it's displaying is JUL 02 2015. So the week rollover bug was coupled to the leap second? No wine to drink today (it's still early)... Anyone else with a TS2100 that's suddenly acting strange, er, correct for the first time in a while? bob k6rtm

Olivier from Heol says that it will revert to 1995 again in a few months, although he was unspecific as to the exact reasons he said they simulated it in their lab. I've decided I'd like to upgrade the GPS in my 2100-rb, but it will probably be a little while before I get the job done. -Mike On 7/2/2015 3:01 PM, Bob Martin wrote: > As I look at my Tymserve 2100 sitting in the rack to my left, the date it's displaying is JUL 02 2015. > > So the week rollover bug was coupled to the leap second?

This is due to the way the GPS epoch is calculated inside the 2100 : the DATUM engineers estimated the future leap second insertions to determine GPS epochs, which was not a so good idea... Our N024 GPS board inserted insteas of the ACE board corrects this bug, as well as offering high GPS sensitivity and fast startup. We offer warranty for the next 20 years. Regards Olivier
