+ <h3>PTB Modem Time Service and other European Laboratories Time Services</h3>
+ <hr>
+ <h4>Synopsis</h4>
+ <p>Address: 127.127.23.<i>u</i><br>
+ Reference ID: <tt>PTB</tt><br>
+ Driver ID: <tt>ACTS_PTB</tt><br>
+ Serial Port: <tt>/dev/ptb<i>u</i></tt>; 1200 baud, 8-bits, no parity<br>
+ Requires: <tt>/usr/include/sys/termios.h</tt> header file with modem control</p>
+ <h4>Description</h4>
+ <p>This driver supports the PTB Automated Computer Time Service (ACTS) and it is a modified version of the NIST ACTS driver so see it for more informations..</p>
+ <p>It periodically dials a prespecified telephone number, receives the PTB timecode data and calculates the local clock correction. It designed primarily for use when neither a radio clock nor connectivity to Internet time servers is available. For the best accuracy, the individual telephone line/modem delay needs to be calibrated using outside sources.</p>
+ <p>The only change between this driver and the NIST one is the data format. Infact PTB data format is the following:</p>

+ <h4>Fudge Factors</h4>
+ <dl>
+ <dt><tt>time1 <i>time</i></tt>
+ <dd>Specifies the time offset calibration factor, in seconds and fraction, with default 0.0.
+ <dt><tt>time2 <i>time</i></tt>
+ <dd>Not used by this driver.
+ <dt><tt>stratum <i>number</i></tt>
+ <dd>Specifies the driver stratum, in decimal from 0 to 15, with default 0.
+ <dt><tt>refid <i>string</i></tt>
+ <dd>Specifies the driver reference identifier, an ASCII string from one to four characters, with default PTB.
+ <dt><tt>flag1 0 | 1</tt>
+ <dd>Not used by this driver.
+ <dt><tt>flag2 0 | 1</tt>
+ <dd>Not used by this driver.
+ <dt><tt>flag3 0 | 1</tt>
+ <dd>Not used by this driver.
+ <dt><tt>flag4 0 | 1</tt>
+ <dd>Not used by this driver.
+ </dl>
+ <h4>Additional Information</h4>
+ <p>A keyword in the ntp.conf file permits a direct connection to a serial port of source of time like IEN CTD signal. It is sufficient to use the string DIRECT in place of the phone number.</p>
