Page 7: Overview
The power is introduced at one of the 1200 series clocks running in Master mode and from there it is distributed to the other downstream clocks running in slave mode. If the system is large, power can be introduced at multiple convenient clock locations. -
Page 8: Figure 1-1: Clock Block Diagram
1200 Series Analog Clock Displays Manual • In master mode, outputs 12 VDC modulated with timecode • In slave mode, can operate off 12VDC modulated with timecode. This allows multiple clocks to run off a single 110/220 AC power outlet •... -
Page 9: Installation
INSTALLATION The 1200 series clocks have keyhole slots for mounting. They have a 4 pin connector for timecode input and output. They have a power jack for 12 VDC input and there is a 12 VDC adapter supplied which is installed in a slot in the rear panel. -
