• Connect the other end of the CAT5 cable to your network. The
cable used to connect the clock must be a straight-through
cable, not a crossover. To tell the difference between a straight-
through and a crossover cable, hold the connectors side by side,
with the same side of each connector facing you. Look at the
wires inside of the connector. If the colors of the wires run in
identical order from left to right in both connectors, the cable is
a straight-through. If the colors run in opposite order, the cable
is a crossover.
Serial Clocks
• Connect the RJ-11 connector of the cable (the one that looks
like a phone-jack) into the right side port on the bottom center
of the time clock.
• Connect the RS-232 end of the cable (the 9-pin D-Connector)
into an available serial port on your computer.
Note: Serial clocks can also be connected through a USB port
using a Keyspan USB to serial adapter.
Modem Clocks
• Connect the RJ-11 connector of the cable (the one that looks
like a phone-jack) into the right side port on the bottom center
of the time clock.
• Insert the other RJ-11 connector into an active analog telephone
wall-jack.
4. The clock can now be attached to the mounting plate. Place the top
of the clock on the lip at the top of the mounting plate. Slide the
clock over the center tab on the bottom of the clock until the center
screw hole at the bottom of the clock aligns with the screw hole in
the tab. Secure the clock by placing a screw through the aligned
hole.
