Installation Option #1
There is a main high powered transceiver in the building and high powered transceivers or repeaters as needed to cover the entire premise. In this
option, the system does not depend on the clock for transmission.
OPTION 1A:
Transceivers or repeaters are synchronized wirelessly to the main transceiver.
1. Place the main transceiver in a central location (hallway recommended).
2. Pick the location of the second transceiver or repeater.
3. Place the transceiver/repeater in a location where the signal is available from the main transceiver. In order to verify that the transceiver is receiv-
ing a signal from the main transceiver, power up the transceiver and within five minutes, it shall show the main transceiver time. If the transceiver
did not correct to the main transceiver time, choose a different location for the transceiver.
4. Repeat the above mentioned steps with the corresponding transceivers or repeaters. Please note that the corresponding transceivers or repeaters
can receive a signal from another transceiver or repeater, and not only from the main transceiver.
OPTION 1B:
Transceivers or repeaters are synchronized via wire to the main transceiver.
1. Place the main transceiver in a central location (hallway recommended).
2. Run two conductive wires between the main transceiver and the corresponding transceivers or repeaters in order to transmit the time
between the units.
Installation Option #2
There is at least one (1) high powered transceiver in the building and in order to cover the entire premise, the battery operated clocks are used as
transceivers/repeaters.
Clock Operational Overview (Battery Operation Version)
In order to reserve battery consumption, the receiver of the clock is enabled for ten (10) minutes upon power up. During normal operation, the
clock enables its transceiver every two hours (in normal mode). The clock also has the capability to transmit/receive during normal operation every
four hours (in economy mode).
There is a manual option, by pressing the Transmit/Receive switch twice to enable the receiver for ten (10) minutes in order to receive the time
signal. In this case, the second hand will move to the twenty (20) second location until the signal is received, and then the clock will resume
normal operation.
