Chapter 6
The Setup Menus
This section should guide you in configuring the Model 1084A/B/C operation using the SETUP
Menus or RS-232C port(s) according to your preferences. Logically, use the setup menus prior to
installing the clock for the first time, or changing any of the main board jumpers as described in
Chapter 5.
Two of the most common setup menus for any application are (1) configuring the Local Offset
and Daylight Saving values, and (2) setting up the IRIG-B outputs for the correct time zone. To
operate with the local time in your region, you will need to configure the Local Offset (from UTC)
and Daylight Savings (or Summer Time), changeover settings. There are a number of other settings
that may be important to your application, however local time offsets are normally fundamental
requirements. For a complete list of setup menus, see Table 6.1.
There are two available methods for configuring the 1084B/C: (1) Using the lower row of keys on
the front panel, and (2) remotely, using either the main RS-232C port or Option RS-232C port.
To configure Model 1084A, you must use the RS-232C port(s) . Both methods are described in this
section. For complete information on configuring all clocks remotely through either serial port,
please refer to Chapter 9, Serial Communication and Command Set.
At the end of each SETUP menu section are references to the corresponding RS-232C command(s)
for configuring these functions.
Table 6.1 lists the various menus used to configure the operation of these clock models.
