This is necessary if you require absolute GPS time in your application,
or need to communicate with the GPSDO to obtain location, satellite info, etc.
If you only require 10MHz and PPS signals for reference or MIMO use,
-(see the Synchronization application note), it is not necessary to perform
-this step.
+(see the `Synchronization Application Notes <./sync.html>`_),
+it is not necessary to perform this step.
To configure the USRP to communicate with the GPSDO, use the
usrp_burn_mb_eeprom utility:
::
- $ cd <install-path>/share/uhd/utils
- $ ./usrp_burn_mb_eeprom --key=gpsdo --val=internal
+ cd <install-path>/share/uhd/utils
+ ./usrp_burn_mb_eeprom --args=<optional device args> --key=gpsdo --val=internal
-This will configure the driver to communicate with the GPSDO on startup.
+ -- restore original setting --
+ ./usrp_burn_mb_eeprom --args=<optional device args> --key=gpsdo --val=none

-**Installation instructions:**
-
-1. Remove the daughterboard.
-2. Move J510 jumper on the motherboard from 1-2 to 2-3 in order to switch from external 10 MHz Ref Clock to GPSDO’s 10 MHz Ref Clock
-3. Screw the GPSDO module in place with the screws provided. The screws are treated to avoid loosening with vibration.
-4. Connect the GPSDO power cable to J509 on the motherboard, and then to connector D on the GPSDO module
-5. Connect an SMB to SMA cable between connectors B and J506 (PPS2)
-6. Connect an SMB to SMA cable between connectors C and J507 (CLK REF2)
-7. Connect the serial cable between connectors A and J312 (RS232-3) on the motherboard. If J312 on your USRP isn’t a keyed connector, please ensure to connect pin1 (TX) of connector A to pin3 (RX) on J312.
-8. Remove the washer and nut from the MMCX to SMA-Bulkhead cable. Connect it to connector E and then insert SMA-Bulkhead connector through the hole in the rear panel. Tighten nut to fasten in place.
-9. Replace the daughterboard pushing all the cables underneath.
