    It can be used to set your computer clock accurately, but will not provide any function to the 6x000. A 10 MHz GPSDO can be used to lock most 6000s.

    To be a reference clock for the FLEX-6000, it must transmit a highly accurate and disciplined 10 MHz signal.  Specs in the hardware manuals.

An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
