[time-nuts] Oscilloquartz OSA 5420 - Manuals and Software Needed

Hello,

I bought the unit in the subject from a bankrupt company and I want to
share some things about this one and ask for some help if anyone has
access to ADVA/Oscilloquartz Support page.

This unit is a compact 1U rack mountable type and it is completely
silent, I didn't hear any fan noise. On the back it has some radiator
which is barely warm.

First issue I had was the RS232 serial port (RJ45) which was not using
the "standard" pinout I was used to so I had to build my own cable.

I attached the pinout to this email in case someone needs it.

I went through the initial configuration and everything seems OK.

In terms of hardware it has the following:
- CPU Freescale LayerScape LS1020E ARMV7 at 1000 MHz
- RAM 512 MB DDR3
- Flash 4 MB
- NAND 1024 MB

It is running some embedded Linux and my software version is 10.5.2

Issues that I found with Oscilloquartz are the following:
- they only provide a datasheet
- NO manuals
- NO software/firmware
- NO possibility to create a support account and request manuals and
software. (Only the Sales person can create one for you)

I found one seller on eBay that sold 29 pieces of the same model and he
said in the ad he has the following manuals and software but I cannot
contact him since the auction ended and I am not sure if he is willing
to help since I didn't buy this unit from him. If anyone on the list
bought this unit from him and ot the manuals and firmware I would like
also to have them please.

Does anyone have any manuals and firmware for this unit?

Thanks!
