Command Packet 0x8E-A3: Issue Oscillator Disciplining Command
Use command packet 0x8E-A3 to issue an oscillator disciplining command. The
receiver responds with packet 0x8F-A3 in the same format as packet 0x8E-A3.

Command Packet 0x8E-A4: Test Modes
ThunderBolt E provides a test mode of operation that allows the user to set the time
and UTC parameters. Packet 0x8F-AC provides a status bit (minor alarm bit 8) to warn
the user that ThunderBolt E is operating in a test mode. The receiver replies with
response packet 8F-A4.

response packet 8F-A4.
Note – Test mode 3 does not actually cause the receiver to enter a test mode, but instead
provides a means for the user to send UTC parameters to the receiver that will be used in
test mode 1.

Test mode
Set this field to 0 to exit test mode and return the receiver to
normal operations. A reset or power cycle will also cause the
receiver to exit test mode.

receiver to exit test mode.
1
Test mode
Setting this field to 1 tells the receiver to enter the user time test
mode. The receiver will set the time to the week number and
TOW sent with this packet. The receiver will then increment this
time once per second. The time in packet 8F-AB will show the
user test time, but all other packets that have time fields will be
unaffected.
