ATSTCS control panel. The Code Blue up counting elapsed timer will override all other modes of operation if used. The DSY261RSxE can function as a 12-hour or 24 hour stand-alone clock or can be wired as a 12-hour secondary clock for synchronous time.
Control Station Switch Functions DSY261RSxE Owner's Manual Run/Set Switch - Set Position: This position is used to set the clock or a preset up or down counting time (Timer). It is also used to reset the Code Blue timer. Run Position: This position is used to permit Clock/Timer to operate.
Clock/Timer Installation DSY261RSxE Owner's Manual The Digital Clock/Timer can be mounted to a single or double gang box. To install the Digital Clock/Timer, follow the instructions below. Ensure that installation conforms to the National Electrical Code and local wiring codes.
Control Station Installation DSY261RSxE Owner's Manual The ATSTCS Control Station can be mounted to a double gang box, 1 inch deep or deeper. The Control Station can be mounted up to 30 feet away from the Digital Clock/Timer. The recommended minimum interconnecting field wire size is #22.8 AWG stranded wire.
Apply power to the unit. The displays may rotate during the power on self test and then a version number will appear for a few seconds. The DSY261RSxE will display 1:00:00 and begin keeping time. If the backup battery is not depleted, the self test will be bypassed and the DSY261RSxE may display a time other than 1:00:00.
Operation DSY261RSxE Owner's Manual Up Counter Elapsed Time Operation Once the desired preset value has been set, the unit is now ready to function as an UP count elapsed timer. Be sure the SET/RUN switch is in the RUN position.
Operation DSY261RSxE Owner's Manual Free Running Clock Operation The Digital Clock/Timer can be used as a free running clock. No additional connections are required. It will run as a line syn- chronous clock once time has been set. Synchronous Secondary Clock Operation The Digital Clock/Timer can be used as a correctable synchronous secondary clock.
Code Blue DSY261RSxE Owner's Manual Description The Code Blue feature provides an override which forces the clock into a special count up elapsed time mode. No matter which of the three normal functions is being displayed, Code Blue input will cause the unit to begin counting elapsed time from 00:00:00.
Important Considerations DSY261RSxE Owner's Manual The ATSTCS must be in the RUN mode for Code Blue to override. The 12vac/vdc to 30vac/vdc signal that starts the Code Blue timer originates from equipment external to the Digital Clock/ Timer. The external equipment usually employs a switch device (i.e., a relay contact) to apply this signal. That switching device is often referred to as the Code Blue contact.
An incompatible battery may leak or explode, causing equipment damage and/ or personal injury! If battery must be replaced, contact American Time at 800-328-8996. System Maintenance The Digital Clock/Timer and ATSTCS Control Station have been manufactured for years of dependable, reliable use. However, to assure the reliability of this product, it is recommended that the Digital Clock/Timer be tested at least every six (6) months with the Control Station and Code Blue contact for operation in accordance with wiring configurations used.
