Clocking.HBus.AutoFallBack
Syntax
- Clocking.HBus.AutoFallBack = mode
Note: For more information about setting up CT bus clocking, and about the rules and restrictions that apply to setting up clocking with CG 6000C boards, refer to Section 3.5.
Access
- Read/Write
Type
- String
Default
- NO
Allowed Values
- YES | NO
Example
- Clocking.HBus.AutoFallBack = YES
Description
- Enables clocking fallback on the board. Set to YES to specify that the board automatically switches to an alternative timing reference (specified with the Clocking.HBus.FallBackClockSource keyword) when the first timing reference (specified with the Clocking.HBus.ClockSource keyword) fails.
Note: CG 6000C boards operating in slave mode cannot fall back to Network 1.
- This keyword applies for all modes specified by the Clocking.HBus.ClockMode keyword.
Note: The physical timing references specified with the Clocking.HBus.ClockSource and Clocking.HBus.FallBackClockSource keywords must be present and not in alarm when the CG 6000C board's clocking is set up.
- Specifying NO indicates that the system does not fall back to a backup timing reference.
- If the board is configured as the primary master or in standalone mode, this keyword allows the board to switch to the fallback timing reference when the first source goes into an ALARM state.
Note: Use the swish command queryBoardClck to determine what timing reference the board is actively using.
- In addition:
- If the primary clock master's first timing reference and fallback
timing reference fail, the secondary clock master begins to drive
the CT bus clock for all clock slaves. If either of the primary clock
master's timing references then recover, the CT bus does not
switch back to this either of these sources. The secondary master
continues to drive the CT bus clock until directed otherwise.
- If the board is configured as the primary clock master and both
timing references fail, the board reconfigures itself to become a
slave to the secondary H100/H110 timing reference.
- If the board is configured in standalone mode and both the first
timing reference and fallback timing references fail, the board
automatically switches to OSC.
