INTRODUCTION
These operating instructions describe the installation and operation of NDC numerical electronic displays with
remote control, designed to display the time, date and temperature. The basic parameters of the described
displays are contained in Tab. 1.

All displays have 2 connectors for a 2-wire or 3-wire RS485 communication interface and can be connected
into a communication network. If the displays are connected into a communication network (Fig. 1), any of
them can be controlled via a handheld infrared controler. Up to 127 devices can be connected to an NDC-net.
