Important Safety Instructions

VERY IMPORTANT:

KNOW YOUR COMMUNICATION PROTOCOL

The Valcom Wired clock is designed to support the 2-Wire Digital Communication Protocol as well as 
3-wire (sync-wire) communication protocols. To run either system properly, the clock requires the correct 
wiring format. It is very important that you only follow the wiring instructions appropriate to your clock’s 
communication protocol. For example: if your system includes converter boxes which are only used for the 
2-wire system, then you should only follow the instructions that relate to the 2-wire digital communication  
protocol wiring.

DANGER

SHOCK HAZARD

•  Keep the electricity to this device turned 

OFF until the clock installation  

is complete. 

•  Do not expose the clock movement to 

water, or install the clock in a location 

where it may be exposed to water.

WARNING

FIRE HAZARD

•  Always follow your national and regional 

electrical codes or ordinances. 

•  The AC power circuit for the clock must 

be attached to a circuit breaker that can 

be reset by the user.

PHYSICAL INJURY HAZARD

•  If you are standing on an object while 

installing your clock, make sure that the 

object can support your weight, and will 

not sway or move as you stand on it. 

•  Take precautions to avoid injury by 

potential safety hazards near the point 

of installation including (but not limited 

to) heavy machinery, sharp objects, hot 

surfaces, or exposed cables carrying an 

electric current. 

•  Follow all mounting instructions exactly 

as stated in this manual. Failure to do so 

may result in the device falling off the 

point of installation.

•  Packaging materials and mounting items 

include plastic bags and small pieces, 

which pose a suffocation hazard to 

young children.

NOTICE

•  Do not install the clock outdoors. 

Damage to the clock if placed outdoors 

voids the warranty.

•  Do not hang objects from the clock or 

clock mounting parts. The clocks are not 

designed to support the weight of other 

objects.

•  The clock face and housing may 

be cleaned with a damp cloth or 

disinfectant. Test other cleaning products 

on a small part of the clock housing 

before attempting to use on the rest of 

the clock. Avoid bleach and chemicals 

known to dissolve plastics.
