[time-nuts] Datum ts2100 gps error code 41: New clone ace III

[Lizeth Norman]

Jason,
The time on the front panel of the instrument, at power on, shows Jan 1,
2014.
As you say, the gps health menu choice functions sometimes like you state,
other times I get error 41. I do also get the firmware and satellite
information.
Neither the Tracking or Lock led's illuminate.
