ANZ14NET: Time and Date Display with NTP synchronized Reference

Key Features:

• Good visible LED Display for Time, Date and Day of Week
• RS232/20mA Interface
• Buffered hardware clock
• Slave Clock for Meinberg LANTIME NTP Time Server (ANZ14/NET)
• Integrated Power Supply (100 - 240VAC)

Time and Date Display with NTP synchronized Reference
ANZ14/NET is a LED display with network (Ethernet) connection. It was designed to display the time (hours, minutes and seconds) as well as the date (day, month, year and day of the week). The free running clock is beeing synchronized cyclic via the network connection (RJ45 10/100MBit) by a NTP time server using the Network Time Protocol.

The UTC time sent by the NTP server is converted into the users local time by configurable parameters and displayed correspondingly. A dot in the LED display and/ or a numerical error code indicates a malfunction. Configuration occurs via network using a Telnet connection. The ANZ14/NET is a stand-alone free running clock with integrated power supply that is synchronized via network connection using NTP. The 14-digit LED display shows time, date and day-of-week. The display brightness is variable. A serial time string is generated either once per second or once per minute. Baudrate and framing are set to 9600 baud, 8N1. This configuration must not be changed.

Option DIS14/NET with green Display and brightness adjustment
The front panel of the DIS14/NET contains three push buttons. Pressing the button "Mode" for at least two seconds enables the setup menu (LED "Setup" is switched on). This menu allows the configuration of the features provided by the DIS14/NET. All available sub menus are selected by the "Mode" push button while both "Brightness" push buttons (+ and -) are used to set the value or to select the available options.

Buffered Real Time Clock
In case of supply voltage failure the on-board real time clock keeps the time powered by a backup capacitor for more than 150 hours. This capacitor does not need any maintenance and ensures that the ANZ14 returns with the actual time information even before the first synchronisation. Alternatively, the clock can be ordered with a lithium battery which has a live time of at least 10 years guaranteed.

Configuration with two push buttons and setup menu

• 12 numeric LED digits for time and date
• 2 alphanumeric LED digits for day of the week
• 14mm/13mm character height (time/date), variable brightness
• Modulation indicated by LEDs
• Setup menu for configuration
