I have enabled PPS support as a module.Under this I have selected PPS debugging message,UART serial support.

I am using GPS Receiver TRIMBLE ACE 3 . PPS from GPS receiver is fed to MAX232 and output of MAX232 is fed to DCD pin of serial port.The serial port I have used is ttys3.

The relevant part of my ntp.conf is

enable stats

statsdir /var/log

statics loopstats

logconfig = all server 127.127.8.3 mode 138 prefer iburst fudge 127.127.8.3 refid TSIP flag3 1 flag2 0 time1 0.042

server 127.127.1.0

fudge 127.127.1.0 stratum 10

These are the results after about half an hour:

ntpq -p

ntptime

ntp_gettime() returns code 0 (OK) time CAC57B62?.7EC56000,SUN, Oct 21 2007 12:56:43.265, (.265534), maximum error 1061671us, estimated error 2us ntp_adjtime() returns code 0 (OK) modes 0x0 (), offset 0.000 us, frequency -0.000 ppm, interval 1 s, maximum error 1121063 us, estimated error 2 us, status 0x1 (PLL), time constant 6, precision 1.000 us, tolerance 512 ppm,

Information for generic driver is coming in log file.But no info regarding PPS is coming in log file.

But if I am runing the ppstest file I can see PPS data.

What could be the possible reason for PPS not being used?

Please feel free to ask if any more details is required...
