Omicron CM GPS 588 - GPS controlled time reference
The OMICRON CMGPS 588 is a high-precision GPS-controlled time reference used for synchronizing OMICRON test systems during protection and power system testing. It acts as a PTP grandmaster clock, enabling accurate time alignment of multiple test sets for applications such as end-to-end relay testing, synchronized measurements, and time-stamped data acquisition. Its antenna-integrated, outdoor-ready design ensures reliable operation in field conditions with minimal setup.
