<h4>Synopsis</h4>

<p>Address: 127.127.35.<i>u</i><br>

Reference ID: <tt>PCF</tt><br>
|

<h4>Description</h4>
|
|
|
|
<p>This driver supports the parallel port radio clock sold by
|
|
<a href="http://www.conrad-electronic.com/">Conrad Electronic</a> under
|
|
order numbers 967602 and 642002. This clock is put between a parallel
|
|
port and your printer. It receives the legal German time, which is
|
|
either CET or CEST, from the DCF77 transmitter and uses it to set its
|
|
internal quartz clock. The DCF77 transmitter is located near to
|
|
Frankfurt/Main and covers a radius of more than 1500 kilometers.
|
|
|
|
<p>The pcfclock device driver is required in order to use this
|
|
reference clock driver. Currently device drivers for
|
|
<a href="http://home.pages.de/~voegele/pcf.html">Linux</a> and
|
|
<a href="http://schumann.cx/pcfclock/">FreeBSD</a> are available.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>This driver uses C library functions to convert the received
|
|
timecode to UTC and thus requires that the local timezone be CET or
|
|
CEST. If your server is not located in Central Europe you have to set
|
|
the environment variable TZ to CET before starting <tt>ntpd</tt>.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h4>Monitor Data</h4>
|
|
|
|
<p>Each timecode is written to the <tt>clockstats</tt> file in the format
|
|
<tt>YYYY MM DD HH MI SS</tt>.</p>
