[time-nuts] Telecom Solutions DCD Cesium

[Robert Lutwak]

Try downloading Monitor3 from the Symmetricom WWW site:
http://www.symmetricom.com/support/knowledge_base/software_download.aspx?prodtype=TTM&file=Monitor_setup.zip

Connect your PC to the cesium module with a null modem cable, typically 
DB-25 on the cesium end.

Start by trying either 2400-7-O-2 or 9600-7-O-2.

If that doesn't start talking, try running "Detect ComPort settings" on the 
"File->Configure Serial Port" menu.

Monitor3 should work with most of the Datum/FTS 5045/4201 cesium modules. 
The control functions don't work, but it should be able to read all the 
monitor parameters, save them, etc.
