About Dukane Wired Clock Systems

Dukane Communication Systems proposes a simple solution – get in sync! Dukane’s family of analog and digital clocks combined with programmable master clocks and other accessories makes keeping and controlling time easier. Dukane can provide turnkey systems including clocks and controllers to keep your facility running on the same schedule, day after day

By synchronizing the clocks within a facility, you ensure that all personnel inside have the same information. No matter the type of environment, things run more smoothly if the time is accurate and consistent.

Some applications, like elementary schools, require analog clocks. Others, like higher education, businesses, and healthcare facilities, prefer digital versions. Dukane offers both analog and digital models and Dukane has priced these clocks to be the most competitive available today.

To simplify installation, Dukane’s clock system components can use standard electrical backboxes rather than custom or proprietary versions. This means that Dukane's clocks can be installed into most existing wall openings.

With the flick of a dip switch, our analog clock can take on the personality of various other syncronous secondary clocks. All you need is our analog clock for all your replacement needs.

Clocks should be easy to find and easy to read, while fitting into their surroundings. Dukane's clocks are styled to be simple, clearly visible, and neutral to their environment. Architects and engineers will appreciate their adaptability.

Dukane offers unique scoreboard and timer capabilities when using the 24CC10 Controller with digital clocks. These can be useful when there is a need to time tests, keep score between teams, or even determine how long certain tasks take to complete.

Dukane's clock systems deliver the accuracy, choices, convenience, styling, and unique features that your facility is looking for, all at a price you can afford.

About Dukane Wireless Clock Systems

Dukane wireless clock solutions comprise a reliable master/slave cascading network that synchronizes clocks from a central on-site master controller. The master clock receives highly accurate time signals from an NTP or GPS source and relays timecodes to local slave clocks via wireless signals.

Each clock in the system is capable of receiving and transmitting the wireless signal which allows it to be used as a repeater while boosting the data stream and sending along the system. With this dual capability there is no limit to the number of clocks that can be installed throughout highrises, sprawling facilities, and small buildings alike.

Because the signal fans out and is repeated by a cascading number of devices, a single clock will typically receive its data from a number of different angles. This dramatically reduces the effect of obstructions, noise sources, or long distances on the reliability of the system. Furthermore, if an individual clock looses its signal, it will link to a nearby clock and automatically synchronize with that new source.

The cascading network also reduces system setup and installation costs, thanks to the relatively low signal strength that is necessary for it to function efficiently. This eliminates the expense and time required to obtain an FCC license.

The Dukane Model 24ZB20 and 24ZB40 Secondary Clocks provide a highly visible, even-intensity, long-life display of time in selectable formats. They can be operated in either 12- or 24-hour format, and at either Bright or Normal intensity levels. The time display on the secondary clock updates to the master clock time at one-minute intervals. These cost-effective digital clocks can be used in a wired time-keeping system or, with the addition of the optional ZigBee module 24ZBM2040, can be installed on a wireless system.

A cost-effective base station is the beginning of your TimeCast™ system. This Power-over-Ethernet (POE) unit is small enough to mount wherever needed. For installations without POE, the unit can be powered with a 5VDC micro USB wall plug.

The easy to understand user interface with 4-line display makes setup a breeze. The LAN connection can use a local or internet SNTP time server to keep accurate time. A battery-less backup system can keep time during outages for over 10 days.

TimeCast™ signals are transmitted to all nearby clocks and is repeated by each clock for complete building coverage. All secondary clock information is gathered by the base station and stored locally or uploaded to the free National Time cloud service.
