1 Introduction
Network Time Protocol (NTP) can be used to synchronize the time on network clients, across an IP network, to the
correct time of an NTP time server. TimeTools NTP Servers provide a stratum 1 NTP Time Server for ensuring the time is
correct across an entire network.
The Network Time Server acquires time from the GPS satellite constellation and distributes time across a network using
the TCP/IP Network Time Protocol (NTP).
2 Key Features
16-Channel, High Sensitivity GPS Timing Receiver.
Can operate with outdoor, indoor or window located antenna, saving on cabling costs.
Timing receiver synchronises to less than 15 nanoseconds (GPS Locked).
NTP accurate to less than 3 microsecond (3x10-6 seconds) UTC (GPS Locked).
Synchronize in excess of 100,000 clients.
10/100 Mbit auto-sensing, auto-MDIX Ethernet ports.
IPv4 and IPv6 Internet Protocol.
Extremely cost-effective.
Universal AC/DC mains power adapter for world-wide operation.
Made in UK, with 1 -month warranty and free lifetime support.
*1. Assuming standard 1 8 sec NTP polling frequency.

6 Installation
6.1 ocating the T100
Locate the appliance safely in a rack, on a shelf, or in a cupboard. The device should not be supported by the attached
cables.
CAUTION:
Do not install the T100 appliance where the operating ambient
temperature may drop below 0°C (3 °F) or exceed 50°C (1 °F).
6.2 Antenna Connection
The T100 antenna connection is a TNC female RF connector. It is provided for connection of an active 5 volt GPS
antenna via a coax cable.
WARNING:
Any local installation regulations for outdoor or rooftop mounted
antennas in the country where the antenna is installed must be
observed.
Please refer to the GPS/GNSS Antenna Installation Guide (Document Number: T1 0 -01) for further information on
antenna installation.
6.3 Connecting Ethernet
The T100 has a single 10/100 Mbit BaseT RJ45 auto-sensing, auto-MDIX Ethernet port.
The auto MDI-X feature, automatically detects the required cable connection type and configures the connection
appropriately, removing the need for crossover cables for peer to peer connection.
Connect one end of a CAT-5 patch cable to the RJ-45 network interface on the rear of the T100. Connect the other end
to a port on your network switch.
Alternatively, the T100 can be connected directly to a host PC Ethernet network port using a CAT-5 patch cable
for configuration purposes.
IMPORTANT:
When first installing the T100 on your network, ensure that no other
device on your network conflicts with the default IP address of the
appliance.
Default IP Address (Eth0): 19 .168.3.

used configure the device from a host PC.
Using the supplied null modem cable, connect the T100 console port to the RS 3 serial port on a PC.
A terminal emulation program, such as Hyper-Terminal or Putty, can then be used to configure the device.
Terminal settings:
Connect Using: Direct to COMx (where x is the serial port number)
Bits per second: 115 00
Data bits: 8

Apply power by connecting the supplied power adapter into the power jack at the rear of the NTP server and into an
appropriate AC power source.
CAUTION:
For PERMANENTLY CONNECTED EQUIPMENT, a readily
accessible disconnect device shall be incorporated external to the
equipment.
For PLUGGABLE EQUIPMENT, the socket-outlet shall be installed
near the equipment and shall be easily accessible.
