FULLY AUTOMATIC TIME CONTROL
A clock, or set of clocks, that is controlled by an Master Clock Controller will automatically be adjusted for Daylight Saving Time (where applicable) and power interruptions, as well as turn the clock illumination on at dusk and off at dawn. We program the master clock with the GPS coordinates for the clock location for hands-free timekeeping. This is especially convenient for clocks installed out of easy reach, or for a set of multiple clocks or clock faces. The master clock is a quartz-based device, with lithium battery back-up memory. It is accurate to a couple minutes per year (drift). For absolute time accuracy (no drift), a GPS antenna is available for exact synchronization.
Master Clock Controller
The master clock controller is connected to the slave clock movement with low voltage wiring. In the case of multiple clocks or clock faces, the controller keeps all in sync with each other. The clock is controlled by a microprocessor and locked to its own precise crystal-based time base.
Features Include:
– Quartz Time-base
– Lithium Battery Back-up Memory
– 2-Line LCD Display Screen
– Fully Programmable
GPS Antenna
The optional GPS Antenna synchronizes the Master Clock continuously for perfect synchronization with NIST (Atomic Time). It corrects for any “drift” from the quartz crystal in the controller. The antenna must be installed outside with clear view of the sky.
