+<BR>Reference ID: <TT>IRIG</TT>
+<BR>Driver ID: <TT>IRIG_TPRO</TT>
+<BR>TPRO Device: <TT>/dev/tpro<I>u</I></TT>
+<BR>Requires: KSI/Odetics device driver, <TT>/usr/include/sys/tpro.h</TT> header file
+<H4>
+Description</H4>
+This driver supports the KSI/Odetics TPRO and TPRO-SAT IRIG-B Decoder,
+which is a module connected directly to the SBus of a Sun workstation.
+The module works with the IRIG-B signal generated by several radio clocks,
+including those made by Arbiter, Austron, Odetics, Spectracom and TrueTime,
+among others, although it is generally an add- on option. In the case of
+the TPRO-SAT, the module is an integral part of a GPS receiver, which serves
+as the primary timing source.
+
+<P>Using the TPRO interface as a NTP reference clock provides precision
+time only to ntpd and its clients. With suitable kernel modifications,
+it is possible to use the TPRO as the CPU system clock, avoiding errors
+introduced by the CPU clock oscillator wander. See the <A HREF="kern.htm">A
+Kernel Model for Precision Timekeeping </A>page for further details.
