I don't know ANYTHING about the 5071a but we acquired that product line
last year.  If I can help by forwarding questions regarding format or
protocol, please let me know.

Hello list,
Does anyone ever hacked the hpgps refclock driver for using it with the
Agilent 5071/a Primary Frequency Standard?

I see that the communication protocol is the same, but the way of asking
time packets changes...
hpgps: PTIME:TCODE?
5071a: PTIME:TIME?

In addition, hpgps responds with yyyymmmddhhmmss string and 5071a
respongs only hhmmss and for getting the date you have to ask for Julian
Date and make the conversion.


Regards!
