When provided with a SMPTE or EBU timecode source, the UDC-5212 is instantly self-setting. In the event of a power failure, the UDC-5212 maintains the correct time internally via a battery-backed timekeeping memory. If power should be restored without timecode, the UDC-5212 will self-set to the correct time as maintained by the battery backup, and then continue to operate on internal crystal or power line timebase.
The UDC-5212 Universal Digital Clock is designed for wall mounting. Rack mounting kits are optional. The rear panel of the UDC-5212 is provided with four rubber feet and four keyholes. These are dimensioned for #8 screws. The rear panel is recessed for connectors and to allow the clock to be placed close to the wall.
Selection of the clock control modes is achieved with the rear panel DIP switches. Figure 1-1illustrates the possible two DIP switch states Switch in right postiition Switch in left postiition Figure 1-1.

Operation Clock Mode To set the UDC-5212 to operate as a timecode reading clock, DIP Switch 6 must be in the CLOCK position. No setting of time is required when input timecode is provided to the UDC-5212 clock. Once valid timecode is detected, either SMPTE or EBU, the clock will instantly self-set.
Switch 1. Secondary Reference Mode The UDC-5212 will run as standard wall clock when no input timecode is provided. Rear panel DIP Switch 4 selects the timebase to be used, either the clock’s internal crystal, or the power line frequency (50/60Hz).
36 is the least significant bit (LSB), while bit 54 is the most significant bit (MSB). When DIP Switch 3 on the UDC-5212 clock is in the USE AUX OFFSET position, the auxiliary offset found in the input timecode’s user bits is added to the input timecode. The clock then displays the total.

Chapter 1: UDC-5212 Universal Digital Clock Clock Setting Controls The UDC-5212 Clock may be set using the three push button switches located on the rear panel. The push buttons, labeled MANUAL SET, CW, and CCW, may be used to program a local time zone offset, or to manually set the time.

The offset is encoded using timecode bits 36, 37, 38, 52, 53, and 54. Bit 36 is the least significant bit (LSB), while bit 54 is the most significant bit (MSB). UDC-5212 and DTD-5225 Digital Time/Date Display Clocks Installation and Operation Manual...
INTERNAL position. The clock uses the internal crystal for a timebase when operated in this fashion. Additionally, DIP switch 2 must be set to the RUN ON SECONDARY position. This disables the flashing colons. UDC-5212 and DTD-5225 Digital Time/Date Display Clocks Installation and Operation Manual...
