5. INSTALLATION

Identification

Each TCG 01-G unit is shipped with identification labels on the base and side. The label provides
details of the particular options fitted to the unit, the power supply requirement, the serial number
and firmware revision.
Check the identification label on the base of the unit to ensure that the correct model
has been supplied before proceeding to install!

Mounting the TCG 01-G

The clock can be used free-standing or mounted in a
bracket which can be attached by removing the 4 corner front panel screws and attaching the plate
as illustrated in Figure 9.

Operation

Check the label on the base for voltage requirements before switching on!
Connect the antenna lead and the antenna (with a good view of the sky). Then connect the power
source to P1.
The time required that will achieve tracking and synchronization given a good view of the sky is
typically within a minute. Reactivating a unit that was previously synchronized thousands of
kilometers away from the present position will take longer but not more than 45 minutes.
As described in LCD Display, the button on the front panel will toggle the display on the LCD and can
also enter the Contrast Adjustment Mode.
Once powered up, the operator can determine correct operation of the TCG 01-G by observing the
LEDs. The ALM LED should be off and the SYN LED should be on solid. If the LEDs are flashing, refer
to LED Indicators for an explanation of the status.
To reset the unit, the power must be cycled. To cycle the power, it is recommended that the external
power source switch that the device the TCG 01-G is connected to; is turned OFF, wait a full ten
seconds, and then turned ON again. This will result in the TCG 01-G having to resynchronize with the
GNSS satellites.
