+.Os
+.Sh NAME
+.Nm endrun
+.Nd EndRun Technologies native time-of-day message timedelta sensor
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.Cd "pseudo-device endrun" Op Ar count
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+This line discipline interfaces serial EndRun Technologies devices.
+.Pp
+The line discipline is enabled by the following sequence:
+.Bd -literal -offset indent
+#include <sys/ioctl.h>
+int ldisc = ENDRUNDISC, fildes; ...
+ioctl(fildes, TIOCSETD, &ldisc);
+.Ed
+.Pp
+The byte stream is unaltered by the line discipline which
+maintains a timedelta sensor using the EndRun data.
+The timedelta sensor will appear as endrun* in the list of sensors and the delta
+(in nanoseconds) between the received time information and the local time can
+be accessed through the
+.Xr sysctl 8
+interface.
+.Sh SENSOR STATES
+The quality of the timedelta is reported as the sensor status:
+.Bl -tag -width "CRITICALXX" -offset indent
+.It OK
+The time information is valid.
+The timedelta is safe to use for applications like
+.Xr ntpd 8 .
+.It WARN
+The attached receiver has been indicating a warning condition
+for at least the last ten minutes.
+The timedelta should be used with care.
+.It CRITICAL
+tty timestamping has been turned on but there is no PPS signal present or the
+receiver indicated a warning condition for at least the last twenty minutes.
+Check your hardware.
+.El
+.Pp
+The status of a second sensor is used to report the status of the
+device itself using the Time Figure Of Merit (TFOM) character:
+.Bl -tag -width "CRITICALXX" -offset indent
+.It OK
+The clock is synchronized.
+TFOM is 6-8.
+.It WARN
+The clock is synchronized and the time error is greater
+than 10ms or the clock is in the unsynchronized state.
+TFOM is 9.
+.It CRITICAL
+The TFOM is invalid.
