Description: The Time Figure of Merit (TFOM) value ranges from 6 to 9 and indicates the current estimate of the worst case time error. It is a logarithmic scale, with each increment indicating a tenfold increase in the worst case time error boundaries.

The scale is referenced to a worst case time error of 100 picoseconds, equivalent to a TFOM of zero. During normal locked operation with CDMA the TFOM is 6 and implies a worst case time error of 100 microseconds.

During periods of signal loss, the CDMA sub-system will compute an extrapolated worst case time error. One hour after the worst case time error has reached the value equivalent to a TFOM of TFOM Fault Level, the NTP server will cease to send stratum 1 reply packets and an Alarm LED will be energized.

What is cntpTimeFigureOfMerit?

Logarithmic Time Figure of Merit (6-9) estimating the worst-case time error of this CDMA-synchronized server, where 6 means about 100 microseconds worst-case error; an admin watches for it climbing toward the fault level, since a sustained high TFOM causes the server to stop serving stratum-1 time and light an alarm LED.
