Hand Calibration
The CLKTCD analog clock hands have been pre‐set and aligned at the factory. This hand location and
alignment information is retained in non‐volatile flash.
The visual determination of the accuracy of the hand display should be done by comparing
the clock hands only after the CLKTCD indicates that it is synchronized to time code and then
only to a digital display or other reference that has also been locked, preferably to the same
time code reference . The reference display should be set adjacent to the CLKTCD unit and eye
movements should be minimized when doing comparisons.
To adjust the hands
1.
Select “Set” using switch S2.8 (ON).
2.
Select either the 12:00:00 (OFF) or 6:00:00 (ON) position using switch S2.7.
3.
Depress and release either button [B1] or [B2] to move the hands in the desired direction
for either 12:00:00 o’clock or 6:00:00 o’clock.
After releasing the button, the hands will rotate in the desired direction until any button
is pressed. This feature allows for easier setting of the hands.
4.
Depress and Hold [B1] or [B3] down for 10 seconds to advance rapidly, then release.
5.
The hands will rotate rapidly until any button is pressed.
6.
Stop the hands a few seconds before the desired position.
7.
Fine‐tune the second hand position to the center of the 12‐indicator mark by pressing
[B3] to move the second hand in the forward direction incrementally.
8.
Verify the final hand positions.
