receiving an error signal output by a cesium-beam tube, generating an adjusting signal after analog-to-digital conversion and loop adjustment, outputting after digital-to-analog conversion, and simultaneously outputting a reference frequency signal:
when the error signal is the main control loop error signal, the adjusting signal is the frequency adjusting signal;
when the error signals are the first and second C field error signals, the adjustment signal is the C field adjustment signal;
when the error signals are the first and second power error signals, the adjustment signal is the microwave power adjustment signal;
when the error signal is an electronic voltage doubler error signal, the adjusting signal is an electronic voltage doubler adjusting signal.
