2.1Single-sided clock
The frame is fixed using two suspensions (at the above) and two sliding springs (at
the bottom). Lift-off the anchoring plate using a screwdriver inserted in between the
sheet and the frame at the sliding spring point on the clock bottom side (chapter
2.3).
Disconnect the interconnecting cables by decoupling the terminals on the control
PCB.
Drill three anchoring holes into the wall, of a diameter adequate to accommodate
wood-type screws of 4 to 5 mm diameter. As a template for marking the position of
the holes the anchoring plate can be used.
Interlace the incoming conductors through the opening in the anchoring plate and fix
the sheet to the wall.
Connect the incoming conductors in accordance with the descriptive sheet on the
terminal board, placed on the anchoring plate (chapter 2.5). Give the conductors an
appropriate shape or cut them off to a length that will not obstruct the placement of
the clock onto the anchoring plate.
Mount the connectors to the cable of the temperature sensor, to the keyboard cable,
Ethernet or to the RS 232 and RS 485 interface cables, if these have been
delivered.
Push the temperature sensor connector, the keyboard connector, Ethernet
connector or the RS 232 and RS 485 jacks into the corresponding terminals on the
control PCB (chapter 2.6 and 2.9). Check the marking of the jack-plugs, in order to
prevent their mix-up.
Connect the interconnecting cables into the corresponding terminals on the clock
control PCB.
Put the clock opposite to the anchoring plate and suspend it onto the upper springs.
Care should be taken when placing the cables between the frame edge and the
anchoring plate, so as not to nip them. Snap the clock in onto the springs by pushing
on the lower part of the frame.
Check whether the anchoring plate on the sides fits exactly into the groove in the
clock frame.
Remove the blind cap from the opening on the clock bottom side.
Insert Allen key into the opening on the bottom side of the clock. Turn the key softly
in anticlockwise direction. The frame catch will snap in.
Replace the blind cap on the opening.
To loosen the frame catch, use the reverse procedure (turn clockwise).
2.2Double-sided clock
The double-sided clock consists of two parts, one serving as the control module (this
one encompasses the jacks to connect powering voltage, synchronization source,
the temperature sensor and the keyboard to the clock), and the other serving as the
display module (with the terminal for the connection of the interconnecting cable).
Both clock parts are interconnected via a 10-core flat cable. The clock suspension
part is delivered separately.
Interlace the incoming conductors through the pipe which serves as the clock
suspension. Secure the ceiling suspension (or the side console) to the ceiling (or the
wall), using 4 wood screws of 5 mm diameter.
The frame is fixed using two suspensions (at the above) and two sliding springs (at
the bottom). Lift-off both parts of the clock from the anchoring plate using a
screwdriver inserted in between the sheet and the frame at the point where there
are the sliding springs on the clock bottom side (chapter 2.3).
Disconnect the interconnecting cables by decoupling the terminals on the control
PCB.
Interlace the incoming conductors through the pipe insert on the anchoring plate, to
the side which finds itself to the opposite of the terminal board. Slip-on the plate onto
the suspension in a way that the screws fit into the upper groove on the pipe insert.
Fix the connection by tightening the screw using an Allen key.
Interlace the incoming conductors through the opening located next to the terminal
board, and connect the conductors to the terminal board on the anchoring plate, in
accordance with the descriptive nameplate (chapter 2.5). Give an appropriate shape
to the conductors or cut them off at a length which does not obstruct the mounting of
the clock onto the anchoring plate.
Mount the connectors to the cable of the temperature sensor, to the keyboard cable,
Ethernet cable or the RS 232 and RS 485 interface connectors, if these have been
delivered.
Place the display part of the clock to the anchoring plate, at a position which is
opposite to the terminal board, and suspend this part onto the upper springs.
Interlace the 10-core interconnecting cable through the lower opening which finds
itself at the closest to the terminal board on the anchoring plate.
Care should be taken when placing the cables between the frame edge and the
anchoring plate, so as not to nip them. Snap the clock onto the springs by pushing
on the lower frame part.
Push the temperature sensor connector, the keyboard connector, Ethernet
connector or the RS 232 and RS 485 jacks into the corresponding terminals on the
control PCB (chapter 2.6). Check the marking of the jack-plugs, in order to prevent
their mix-up.
Connect the 10-core interconnecting cable and the interconnecting cables into the
corresponding plugs on the clock control PCB.
Put the control part of the clock opposite to the anchoring plate and suspend it onto
the upper springs. Care should be taken when placing the cables between the frame
edge and the anchoring plate, so as not to nip them. Snap the clock in onto the
springs by pushing on the lower part of the frame.
Check whether the anchoring plate on the sides fits exactly into the grooves
established in both parts of the calendar digital clock (these must be pushed against
each other in a way to mask the anchorage plate (after placing the parts the plate
shall not be seen).
Remove the blind cap from the opening on the both lower sides of clock.
Insert Allen key into the opening on the lower side of the clock. Turn the key softly in
anticlockwise direction. The frame catch will snap in. Secure both parts of the clock.
Replace the blind cap on the opening.
Loosen the screws on the suspension using Allen key, and lift the clock into the
suspension in a way that the screws fit into the lower groove on the pipe insert.
Secure the attachment by tightening the screw using the Allen key.
To loosen the frame catch use the reverse procedure (turn clockwise).

definition table.
Configure the jumper JP11 according to table (chapter 2.8) if the source of synchronization is
a DCF signal, Mobatime serial code, polarized impulse line, MOBALine or IRIG-B. Choose the
item P4 in main MENU (chapter 5) and set the type of synchronization. The auto detection
mode (P4:A), when the type of synchronization signal is set automatically, is applicable for
DCF signal, Mobatime serial code, MOBALine, IRIG-B, WTD. The permanently lit colon during
the time display signalizes the clock is synchronized by the synchronization source.
10.1Autonomous clock synchronized by DCF 77 receiver
Set value A in items P3, P4 and P7 in the main MENU (chapter 5).
Connect the DCF 77 receiver to the clock terminal board placed on the anchoring
plate (LINE IN terminals) using a twin-wire cable.
The maximum wire length depends on its diameter (approx. 100 - 300 m).
In case the connection is correct and the input signal is at high level, the LED on the
receiver is flashing periodically once a second, with 1 pulse left out at the 59th
second.
If the polarity is incorrect, the LED does not flash. In such a case, interchange the
two wires.
Install the receiver at a place with a high-level radio signal. Don’t install the receiver
near sources of interfering signals, such as the personal computers, TV sets or
other types of power consumers (the calendar digital clock itself generates
interfering signals too).
Position the receiver with its transparent cover (DCF 450) or the arrow on the cover
(DCF 4500) facing the transmitter (located in Frankfurt, Germany). Presuming the
good quality DCF 77 signal the synchronization takes place in approx. 3 to 4
minutes. In case of poor quality of the signal (mainly during the day time) the first
time setting is to be done manually. The red LED of the receiver displays a working
connection by flashing once a second without flickering.
10.2Autonomous clock synchronized by GPS receiver
Set value A in items P3, P4 and the desired time-zone in the P7 item in the main
MENU (chapter 5).
Using jumper JP17 set the power supply output (DC OUT) on pins 3, 4 of the JP1
connector.
Connect GPS receiver to the clock terminal board placed on the anchoring plate
(LINE IN and DC OUT/DCF OUT terminals) using a four-wire cable. Please note the
correct polarity of the wires – see the GPS user manual.
For the correct placing of the receiver please follow the GPS user manual.
Presuming the good position of the GPS receiver the synchronization takes place in
approx. 10 to 20 minutes.
10.3Slave clock controlled by synchronizing impulses
On calendar digital clock connected in time distribution system controlled by
synchronizing impulses choose the item P4 in the main menu and set it according type
impulse lines (one minute, half minute, second pulses) and in item P5 choose mode of
processing impulse line (polarized / unpolarized impulses, synchronization and time
setting / synchronization only). Set the value A in items P3 and P7.
10.3.1 Synchronization and time setting – P5 mode 1 and 3
Clocks are set according to the slave line time on the Master clock.
Stop the slave line on Master clock.
Set all slave clocks on the same time. Set the current date on the calendar digital
clock. The clocks stand still and the colon flashes in 2 second interval.
Set the time of the slave line to the same time as on slave clocks.
Run the slave line on Master clock.
After receiving each impulse is displayed time increased by one minute (or by 30
seconds or 1 second respectively)
After the expiration of run-out time the slave clocks are synchronized by the time
information generated by the master clock, the colon flashes constantly.
In case of the line fault the clock displays the right time information based on its own
quartz time base. When the normal operation of the line resumes, the slave clock
adjusts itself to the time equal to the master clock.
10.3.2 Synchronization only – P5 mode 2 and 4
The clock time-base is synchronized by incoming pulses in normal operation of the
slave line.
Set current date and time on the slave clocks according the master clock time with
accuracy of ±30 seconds (or ±15 seconds, or ±0.5 second respectively).
The colon flashes in 2 second interval.
After 2-3 minutes are the clocks synchronized with the master clock. The colon is
permanently lit during the time display.
In case of the line fault the clock displays the right time information based on its own
quartz time base. When the normal operation of the line resumes, the clock
synchronizes with the incoming pulses.
10.4Slave clock controlled by MOBATIME serial code, MOBALine, or IRIG-B
After the connection of the calendar digital clock to the signal source, time and date
are adjusted automatically, following the receipt of valid time information.
The time setting with using the serial coded line takes place within at least 3 to 4
minutes, for MOBALine and IRIG-B within 6 to 15 seconds.
10.5Slave clock controlled by IF482 over RS232 or RS485
After the connection of the calendar digital clock to the line, time and date are
adjusted automatically, following the receipt of valid time information.
Setting the tune takes place within at least 5 minutes.
Supervised RS485 line available on the DTS.480x timeservers offers exact time
synchronization as well as monitoring the correct function of connected slave clocks.
If the DK clock should be monitored set in menu item P8 unique address in the
range 1 to 32. The value "L" means that the clocks are synchronized only (without
monitoring).
It is necessary to register the clock under the used address in DTS.
The time synchronization starts within a few tens of seconds after start-up.
Failure of slave clock function is signalized by an alarm in DTS.
On the RS485 you can use the jumper TRE - JP10 to connect the termination
resistor 120R between the signals A and B for the correct termination of RS485.
10.7Cascaded connection of the DCF/GPS synchronized clock
Connect the DCF 77 receiver to the clock terminal board placed on the anchoring
plate (LINE IN terminals) using a twin-wire cable.
Set the passive DCF OUT output 3, 4 of the JP1 connector using the jumper JP17.
When using the GPS receiver, the external power supply is needed - parameters
12-24 VDC – min. 5VA.
Interconnect the cascaded clock using a twin-wire cable from the DC OUT / DCF
OUT terminals to the LINE IN terminals of the next clock.
In case the connection is correct and the input signal is at a high level, the LED on
the receiver and the green LED in the clock is flashing periodically once a second,
with 1 pulse left out at the 59th second.
10.8Synchronization in WTD system
The items P3, P4 and P7 are set to value A by the production.
Set the P8 item to the address of the WTD-T transmitter.
The colon is permanently lit after successful signal receiving from WTD-T
transmitter.
10.9Connecting the slave displays through RS485
The clock equipped with the SI interface allows connecting up to 32 slave displays,
which show the same information as the main display. The RS485 (JP5) interface is
used for the connection. Two signals (A, B) and the ground connection GND (from the
JP4) are used. For the signals A and B it is recommended to use the twisted pair (pay
attention for the same polarity by all displays), another twisted pair is used for the GND
connection.
If the overall length of the RS485 bus is longer than ca. 500m, enabling the TRE –
JP10 is recommended in the last clock.
In the clock serving as the master display, set the P13 to value 3 (DK master)
In the slave displays set the P13 to value 4 (DK slave)
Items P14 to P17 are set automatically to 9600 baud, 8 bits, even parity, 1 stop-bit.
In case of communication problems it is possible to lower the communication speed.
The modification of the items P14 to P17 is necessary to proceed in all connected
displays identically.
The clock is synchronized to UTC (Universal Time Coordinated) from a NTP server (up
to four NTP server IP addresses configurable) and must have assigned its own IP
address. The clock requests in defined intervals the actual time from the NTP server. If
the server is not available, the clock tries to contact the other defined servers in cyclic
way until the valid response from the NTP server is received.
This operating mode supports the monitoring and configuration of the movement via
the network connection by means of the Telnet, SNMP or the MOBA-NMS software
tool. For supervision and configuration with MOBA-NMS the clock’s IP address can be
used or the multicast group address having last octet cleared to zero (presuming the
multicast is not disabled).
It is necessary to set appropriate time-zone for correct displaying of local time and date

[50] IP address
[3] Gateway address
[1] Subnet mask
[42] List with up to four NTP server addresses
[42] Time zone server address (usually same as NTP server address)
[234] SNMP manager address
[43] or [224] Additional options (refer to document BE-800793)
The network administrator must configure the DHCP options accordingly.
Assigned parameters can be checked in the submenu of items P20 to P22.
See chapter 4.2.4 for setting the clock’s IP address in the item P20 submenu
See chapter 4.2.5 for setting the subnet mask in the item P21 submenu
See chapter 4.2.6 for setting the gateway in the item P22 submenu
See chapter 4.2.7 for setting the multicast group address in the item P23 submenu
See chapter 4.2.8 for setting the unicast NTP server address in the item P24
submenu.
11.1.3 Manual setting through telnet
The menu item P19 must be set to value 1 or 2. To establish the first connection
through telnet, the following procedure is needed because the initial IP address of the
clock is 0.0.0.0:
assign a new IP address to the clock’s MAC address (marked on the product label)
by windows command arp -s <IP address> <MAC address>
example: arp -s 192.168.0.190 00-16-91-FE-90-00
reset the clock or power-cycle it and do the following within 2 minutes
the IP address is temporarily matched to the clock (only valid when the current IP
address is 0.0.0.0) by windows command ping <IP address> , the clock should
answer the two last ECHO requests at least
example: ping 192.168.0.190
do the following within 30 seconds after the ping
connect to the clock and make the needed settings (see lower) by windows
command telnet <IP address> or use the Hyperterminal application
Setting parameters over telnet:
request for entering the password appears after connection (default password is
718084)
the information about software and hardware version followed by the MAC address
is displayed after entering the correct password
inserted commands must be confirmed by pushing the Enter key, use the
Backspace key for correcting typing errors
command help or ? displays help with a command list
command reset resets the clock (changes are written to Flash)
command conf -p displays current parameters from setup menu
command conf –n displays current network parameters
command conf -? displays help for command conf parameters
example: conf -i 192.168.0.190 sets the clock’s IP address to 192.168.0.190
it is necessary to end telnet connection by command exit
Windows 7 note: The telnet is not activated in Windows 7 by default. For activating it go
to the “Control Panel” in “Start menu”, click on “Uninstall a program (link)” in “Control
Panel”, click on “Turn Windows features on or off (link)” in “Programs and Features”,
click in “Windows Features” box and find the “Telnet Client” check box. Allow the
system to install the appropriate files – should take only a few seconds. The
administrator rights are necessary for this operation.
.
Hyperterminal note: The Hyperterminal application can be used as an alternative to
telnet. It is necessary to activate the options “Send line ends with line feeds” and “Echo
typed characters locally” in the Properties -> Settings -> ASCII setup window.
The DK clock supports SNMP version 2c notifications and parameter reading and
setting by means of SNMP GET and SET commands. This allows for integrating the
clock into a network management system. The DK clock (SNMP agent) can send alarm
and alive notifications to a SNMP manager. The IP address of the SNMP manager can
be provided to the clock by DHCP, Telnet, SNMP or the MOBA-NMS. The structure of
supported parameters is defined in a MIB file (refer to document BE-800793 for
details). In addition the clock supports the “system” node parameters defined by MIB-2
(RFC-1213)
Alarm notifications are asynchronous messages and are used to inform the manager
about the appearance / disappearance of alarms.
Alive notifications are sent out periodically to report availability and state of the clock.
The interval time can be configured.
The clock is synchronized to UTC (Universal Time Coordinated) from a NTP server.
The clock receives NTP multicast packets transmitted by the NTP server in a specified
time cycle. This type of synchronization requires no clock’s own IP address and is
therefore suitable for an easy commissioning of the large systems of slave clocks.
Further this mode supports monitoring and parameter configuration by means of
MOBA-NMS software.
For supervision and configuration with MOBA-NMS the multicast group address can be
used or the multicast group address having last octet cleared to zero.
The Multicast operating mode signifies only a minimum amount of configuration work
for a network administrator.
It is necessary to set appropriate time-zone for correct displaying of local time and date
– see chapter 9 for details.
Default network parameters:
multicast group address239.192.54.1
multicast config address239.192.54.0
configuration port number65532
time zone client port number65534
The menu item P19 must be set to value 1. See chapter 4.2.7 for setting the multicast
group address in the item P23 submenu.
In the item P19, choose if the clock will be connected to default wireless network MOBA-WIFI,
where network parameters (IP address, subnet mask and gateway) will be set automatically
(DHCP), or to wireless network set by user via telnet, where network parameters could be set
manually (telnet, clock menu) or automatically (DHCP). If the DHCP is used, the parameters
assigned by the server can be checked in the items P20 to P22 submenus.
12.1Parameters of default wireless network
Net name (SSID):MOBA-WIFI
Used coding:WPA
Coding key:hgfedcba
DHCP:allowed
12.2Setting process
set WiFi router to parameters of default wireless network
in the item P20 submenus display assign IP address
by windows command telnet <IP address> connect to the clock and make needed
setting (see lower)
example: telnet 192.168.0.190
Setting the network parameters using telnet
it is necessary to push ENTER key after connection
the request for the password appears (initial password is 718084)
the software and hardware version displays if password entering was successful
inserted commands can be sent off using Enter key, the Backspace key serves for
correction of the typing errors
command help or ? displays help with command’s list
command reset resets the clock (setting modifications are written to data flash)
command conf –p displays the current setting of the menu parameters
command conf –n displays the current network parameters, MAC address and
wireless network parameters
command conf –? displays help for the command conf parameters
it is necessary to end telnet by command exit
After expiration of two minutes timeout after telnet ending there is another two
minute period, when the telnet is not functional. The clock is then performing the
NTP time synchronization. This period also takes place at the beginning of every
hour.
Example of setting network parameters using telnet:
command conf –l mobatime set network name of new wireless network
command conf –w 4 set version of used coding on WPA2 for new wireless network
command conf –d abcdefg set the security key for new wireless network
command conf –u 192.168.0.130 set IP address of NTP server on
192.168.0.130
command conf –p19:02 set the clock for connecting to the new initiated wireless
network with manually preset network parameters
command conf –i 192.168.0.190 set clock IP address to 192.168.0.190
command conf –s 255.255.255.0 set subnet mask of the clock on 255.255.255.0
command conf –g 192.168.0.254 set gateway of the clock on 192.168.0.254
command exit ends telnet and writes changes into Flash
The synchronization signal receive process can be displayed in special testing mode.
This can be useful for example when the problems with the DCF signal receipt appear.
Display description during synchronization test mode:
Two digits on the left side show the current DCF bit number (goes up from 0 to 58).
Third digit shows the type of current DCF bit (0 or 1). The last digit shows the number
of successfully received DCF telegrams. The colon indicates that the DCF bit is
currently received. The dot behind the last digit signalizes synchronized clock.
Entering the synchronization test mode:
Enter the clock menu, move to the software version item by several pushes of the
PB1S.
Keep pushing both buttons on the clock frame simultaneously until the display
shows C0:00
Use the PB2 or + button on IR to set the value behind the colon to 03
Keep pushing simultaneously both clock buttons or the DISP button on IR, until the
display shows synchronization information
13.2Parameter reset
If necessary, the clock parameters can be set to factory defaults by the following
procedure.
Activating the parameter reset:
Enter the clock menu, move to the software version item by several pushes of the
PB1S.
Keep pushing both buttons on the clock frame simultaneously until the display
shows C0:00
Using the PB2 or + button on IR set the value behind the colon to 04
Keep pushing simultaneously both buttons or the DISP button on IR, until the
Switch-off the clock.
Install and run the Flash Magic software.
Open the configuration file „LPC2366 dc3.fms“ over the File -> Open Settings menu
Set used COM Port and open file firmware „DK_<version>.hex“ (e.g.
DK_NTP_POE_v349.hex) using the Browse key
Connect the programmer to serial COM Port of computer (the USB-RS232 converter
can be used) and connect the power supply to the jack on the programmer.
Install the jumper ISPE (JP9).
Connect the programmer to connector PROG (JP8). The POWER LED placed on
the clock lights up.
Click the Start button to run programming; after completion, a “Finished” message
will be displayed in the bottom part of the widow
Disconnect the programmer and remove the ISPE jumper.
Firmware version can be checked in the last item of the clock menu.
14.2Firmware update over Ethernet on NTP and PoE versions
Create a folder on the computer disk and copy "tftpd32.ini", "tftpd32.chm" and
"tftpd32.exe" in it. Copy the new firmware file "devapp.bin" as well.
Run "tftpd32.exe", let only the TFTP Server in the window Settings -> Global
Settings be active, don’t change other settings.
Using the Browse key, open choice of active directory and find the one which
contains the given firmware
Connect to the clock by the windows command telnet <clock IP address>
example: telnet 192.168.0.190
The page of telnet requesting will appear, after the password entered identification
of current software version and clock MAC address displays.
Enter the command fu in telnet window to start the automatic clock firmware update
from the "devapp.bin" file.
Information about sending file and its progress displays in the tftpd32 program
window after the command entering. Connection to telnet is ended automatically.
Wait about 1 minute after downloading the file. Connect the telnet to the clock again.
After entering the password, check if the firmware version is correct, if it isn’t, it is
necessary to repeat the whole procedure.
Close the telnet window and end the program tftpd32 with the command exit.
