Time Sync sample

Introduction

The Time Sync samples show how to access the data of time sync and the corresponding hardware pulse. For more information on what Time Sync features, please consult the time sync guide.

Goals

Two samples are provided to show the example usage of how to access the data. Before you start, please ensure that your aircraft has good GPS/RTK reception.

The expected data are:

NMEA GNGSA packets at 5Hz
NMEA GNRMC packets at 5Hz
UTC time tag for the upcoming hardware pulse at 1Hz
PPS source information at 1Hz

The time sync sample is available on Linux.

Output

The output of the time sync callback sample is shown below:
