Page 5: General Information About Dcf77
General Information about DCF77 The radio remote clocks made by Meinberg receive the signal from the long wave transmitter DCF77. This long wave transmitter installed in Mainflingen near Frank- furt/Germany transmits the reference time of the Federal Republic of Germany. This time reference is either the Central European Time (Mitteleuropäische Zeit, MEZ) or... -
Page 6: Ua509P
UA509P The radio remote clock UA509P has been designed for applications where two independent serial interfaces and up to four free programmable relay outputs are needed. The clock also offers the possibility to control slave clocks via seperate slave clock drivers. The rear connector pin assignment is compatible with the former clock UA537P to replace this clock in the future. -

signal. If the antenna is installed properly and the signal from DCF77 can be received without strong distortions, the "Mod." LED starts blinking exactly once per second, corresponding to the time marks from DCF77. If this LED flashes intermediately, there is some electrical noise around which prevents the microprocessor from deco- ding the time message. -
Page 8: Serial Interfaces
Serial Interfaces Two independent asynchronous serial ports can be used to transmit information on date and time to other devices. Baudrate, framing and mode of operation can be configured separately for both interfaces COM0 and COM1. Additionally, a time zone can be assigned to each port: The drivers can be configured individually to transmit either standard time (MEZ/MESZ=CET/CEST), standard time with suppression of daylight saving (always MEZ=CET), or UTC. -
Page 9: Menu Key
MENU Key This key lets the user step through several display menus showing specific data. CLR/ACK Key This key has to be used when parameters are to be modified. When this key is pressed the parameters that have been edited are saved in the battery buffered memory. If the menu is left without pressing CLR/ACK all changes are discarded. -
Page 10: The Menus In Detail
The Menus in Detail Root Menu The root menu is shown when the receiver has completed initialization after power- up. The first two lines of the display show the time zone (as defined in the setup menu), the actual time and the date. The third line shows the user if one of the relay output is applied with an impulse (I). -
Page 11: Programming A Plan
Programming a Plan A Plan is a programmed sequence of several switching times. A plan consists of up to 64 switching programs (PRG). A switching program is a set of a switch-on time (EIN), a switch-off time (AUS) and the corresponding relay (Rel.). Up to eight plans can be configured and assigned to any day of the week or holyday. - Page 12 ATTENTION Because the calculation of the plans is based on greater/less compa- rations of the switching times it is necessary to sort the switching programs of one relay in a chronological order, but not all successive switching programs have to be programmed. 1.

Page 13: Editing Holydays
Editing Holydays It is possible to program up to 99 holydays with higher priority than a weekday. The MENU key lets the user enter the following menu: Pic. 2.6: Menu 4 Each of the holydays are assigned to a specified date and a plan. The date can be entered in two different ways: 1. -
Page 14: Cyclic Pulses
Cyclic Pulses Instead of switching times it is possible to assign cyclic pulses to a relay. The pulse period is to be configured by setting a two-digit value and the unit, either seconds (sek.), minutes (min.) or hours (std.). The allowed values for the pulse period are given in the following table. -
Page 15: Configuration
Configuration This menu lets the user configure the serial outputs: Pic. 3.0: Menu 6 Baudrate The baudrate is settable for COM0 and for COM1 in the following steps: 600, 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 19200, 38400 and 57600. The framing is settable as follows: 7E1, 7E2, 7O2, 7N2, 8E1, 8N1 or 8N2. -
Page 16: Clear Data
Clear Data It is possible to to clear each of the plans separate as well as the whole RAM. Press MENU as often until the following appears in the display: Pic. 3.1: Menu ‘Löschen’ With the NEXT key the user can change between the two options (indicated by >>) while the CLR/ACK key is used to select one of the options. -
Page 17: Setting The Clock Manually
Setting the Clock Manually Setting the clock manually can be done in the menu ‘Uhr stellen’: Pic. 3.4: Menü ‘Uhr Stellen’ After the time, date and day of week have been set the modifikation has to be confirmed by pressing CLR/ACK. Leave the menu by pressing MENU. Configuration Time Zone Each of the two serial interfaces can be assigned to a time zone. -
Page 18: Slave Clock Operation
Slave Clock Operation The UA509P generates slave clock pulses that are able to control slave clocks. These TTL pulses must be amplified by a seperate slave line booster HUC80E. The HUC80E includes a short circuit proofed pulse amplifier for the TTL-pulses generated by the UA509P. -
Page 19: Set Slave Line Time/Slave Clocks
Set Slave Line Time/Slave Clocks When the menu ‘>>setzen’ is selected the slave line is stopped and no pulses are generated until the menu is leaved. Pic. 3.7 In the second line the user can edit the slave line time. Here the current time of the slave clocks should be entered. -
Page 20: Setup Relay State
Setup Relay State In the menu ‘SETUP Schaltzustände’ it is possible to set or to clear the relays manually regardless of the switching programs. The display shows the four relays with the corresponding state. Using NEXT and INC lets the user switch on or off each of the relays. -
Page 22: Technical Specifications
Technical Specifications RECEIVER: narrowband synchronous receiver with automatic gain control bandwidth: approx. 40Hz FIELD SRENGTH: indicated by LED DISPLAY: LC-Display, 4 x 16 characters TIMECODE CHECK: multiple software check of the incoming timecode parity and consistency check over a period of two minutes RELIABILITY OF OPERATION: A software watchdog lets the microprocessor recover from malfunction. -

Page 24: Format Of The Meinberg Standard Time String
Format of the Meinberg Standard Time String The Meinberg Standard Time String is a sequence of 32 ASCII characters starting with the STX (start-of-text) character and ending with the ETX (end-of-text) charac- ter. The format is: <STX>D:dd.mm.yy;T:w;U:hh.mm.ss;uvxy<ETX> The letters printed in italics are replaced by ASCII numbers whereas the other characters are part of the time string. -
