Applications for an RGB Outdoor Digital Clock

  • inside buildings: production halls, receptions, swimming pools, workplaces, halls, corridors, waiting rooms
  • schools and colleges: using the 30 user-programmable alarm times and durations to control study bells/buzzers/sounders using relay output.
  • outside: to enhance building entrances such as open sports facilities
  • stations, platforms, airports, passenger information, logistics centres
  • inside public transport vehicles
  • supported by pylons, within welcome signs, and in advertising and information posts

Time synchronisation Options

The displayed time of the clocks can be set manually by the user or using the function of automatic time synchronisation – available in two options: GPS satellite and NTP (Network Time Protocol).

GPS satellite time synchronisation has following advantages,

  • provides precise time synchronisation from the GPS satellites based on atomic standards,
  • does not require any configuration (plug and play),
  • does not require an Internet connection,
  • operates worldwide (subject to reasonable view of the sky),
  • integral LED signalling proper signal reception on the outside of the receiver.

To take advantage of the satellite time synchronisation, you should equip the clock with the optional GPS Receiver. It is necessary to place the receiver in the location providing “visibility” of the sky.  GPS is achieved via a remote GPS module (connected via included 10m cable for indoor installations where the remote GPS module can be installed outdoors.)

NTP (Network Time Protocol) – is a communication protocol supporting precise, stable and safe synchronisation of clocks with any time server through the computer network. A great advantage of this solution is the possibility of simultaneous synchronisation of many devices.

The synchronisation may be executed:

  • from your own local time server – Internet access is not required
  • from a public remote time server – Internet access is required

NTP functionality requires connection of the (supplied) Ethernet cable.

Clockset network clock management software is available free of charge – see links above for video and download.

The time can be set manually using the IR remote control in which case the Ethernet cable does not need to be connected and can be coiled-up or cut-off.

Mounting

The ZA/ZB clocks are supplied with a steel mounting bracket for wall or cabinet mounting.

For the 50mm 4 digit clock, the mounting bracket is pre-drilled at 215mm centres with two 6x10mm oval holes for fixing with pan-head screws or bolts (not supplied).  Loosen captive cross-head screws at each end of the clock then slot into the bracket before tightening to secure.

For the 100mm 4 digit clock, the mounting bracket is pre-drilled at 270mm centres with two 6x10mm oval holes for fixing with pan-head screws or bolts (not supplied).  Loosen captive cross-head screws at each end of the clock then slot into the bracket before tightening to secure.

For the 200mm 4 digit clock there is a vertically mounted bracket at each end.  There are four 6x10mm oval holes at centres of 180mm (vertically) and 535mm (horizontally)  for fixing with pan-head screws or bolts (not supplied).

4 blanking plugs need to be popped-out to give access to remove the 4 bracket screws so the 2 brackets can be removed for installing.

(Dimensions stated above are for guidance and subject to revision without notice.)

Getting started

Your new ZA/ZB clock is supplied with a fitted UK mains plug and the clock can be up and working in seconds.

If the GPS module is pointed to a patch of sky then in less than a minute the correct time will be displayed.

Otherwise a few presses with the supplied remote control will have the correct time, date, timezone and daylight-saving programmed-in.

 

If you require a clock to be viewed from over 150m we would recommend the newly available extra large outdoor digital clocks. Offering the same high standard of build from RGB Technology and boasting digits of 400mm these clocks are ideal when viewing from distances over 150m.
