FCC Statement

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules and found to comply with the

limits for a Class B digital device. These limits are designed to provide reasonable

protection against harmful interference in a commercial/residential installation.

Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause

harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received,

including interference that may cause undesired operation

WEEE

Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Directive (WEEE) 2002/95/EC

The ADC-A12C31 model is considered WEEE Category 9 (Monitoring and Control

Instruments Equipment) as defined by the WEEE Directive and therefore fall within

the scope of the WEEE Directive.

RoHS

Compliant

Exemption

Restriction of the Use of Certain Hazardous Substances Directive 2002/95/EC

The RoHS directive covers the same scope of electrical and electronic equipment

that are under the WEEE directive, except that Category 8, Medical Devices, and

Category 9, Monitoring and Control Instruments, which are under WEEE, are

excluded from the RoHS directive.

The time display product ADC-A12C31 falls under the category of Monitoring and

Control Instruments Equipment (Category 9 as defined in Annex 1A of WEEE

2002/96/EC Directive) which is excluded from the RoHS directive 2002/95/EC

(reference Article 2, paragraph 1) requirements.

These products are manufactured using lead in the soldering process as allowed

for items excluded from the RoHS directive. These units are RoHS Compliant only

in that they are excluded from the RoHS directive under Category 9, Monitoring

and Control Instruments.

Introduction

The ADC-A12C31 is a precision analog clock containing a stepper motor drive and advanced

microprocessor controlled electronics.

IRIG-B

Defined by the Range Commanders Council, U.S. Army White Sands Missile Range. IRIG (Inter-range

Instrumentation Group) is used by military, government, power industry and many other commercial

and industrial applications. The ADC-A12C31 decodes IRIG-B in both a 1 kHz modulated (IRIG-B1) and

un-modulated/pulse width coded/DC level shifted (IRIG-B0) format. All formats of IRIG-B time code

decoded by the ADC-A12C31 use the time of year information BCD (Binary Coded Decimal). All

formats of IRIG-B time code decoded by the ADC-A12C31 also use the extended year/date and time

zone information in the control functions as defined by the IEEE 1344 specification. SBS (Straight

Binary Seconds) information is not decoded. Manchester format/encoding is not supported.

The ADC-A12C31 can be configured for world-wide time zone offset and automatic DST

(Daylight Saving Time) adjustment and allows for reliable, accurate and maintenance free

operation. Use of the automatic DST feature requires that the clock be enabled to accept the

time code date encoding, using the USB port and ADC-Set (Clock Time Code Display) USB

Configuration Utility (i.e. Windows software application). The time code reference must

provide date encoding in the control bits/fields to date encoding standard for SMPTE or the

IEEE-1344 year encoding for IRIG-B.

SMPTE

Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers format is available in frame rates of 24, 25, and

30 frames second. The ADC-A12C31 time code clock supports all three formats. All formats of

SMPTE time code decoded by the ADC-A12C31 use the full date information in the user bits as

defined by the standard.

The ADC-A12C31 does not support decoding of SMPTE drop-frame, reverse running, VITC,

NTSC, color frame, blackburst or other video time code formats and synchronization options.

Please refer to the “Specifications” section of this document for additional details.

Features

RTC (Real Time Clock) backup retains time during loss of power or reference.

Self-correcting hands once power and/or Time Code reference is established.

Time zone offsets

DST configuration.

TCXO (Temperature Compensated Crystal Oscillator) for +/- 1 min per year accuracy when

no reference available (freewheeling).

All configuration settings retained in non-volatile flash memory.

Second Hand with sweep or step option.

Self-correcting hands after loss of power and/or time code reference and DST changes.

Loss of LTC status LED on clock face, located at the 6 o’clock position.

General Use Precautions

Do not expose this clock to temperatures outside the range of 32˚ to 140°F (0˚to 60˚C). Placing your

device in an environment that is too cold or humid may damage the unit. Do not place heavy objects

on top of this clock or use excessive force on it. Never use benzene, paint thinners, detergent or other

chemical products to clean the outside of this clock. Such products will disfigure and discolor the

casing.
