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 (2) hours (in normal mode). The clock also has the capability to trans-
mit/receive during normal operation every four (4) 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.
Operational Instructions
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 receiving a signal from the main trans-
ceiver, power up the transceiver and within five (5) minutes, it shall show the main trans-
ceiver time. If the transceiver did not correct to the main transceiver time, choose a differ-
ent 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 (2) conductive wires between the main transceiver and the corresponding trans-
ceivers or repeaters in order to transmit the time between the units.
