Wireless Clocks
Wireless timekeeping solutions from National Time and Signal are available in two flavors:
- Spectrum Wi-Fi: Line or battery-powered clocks synchronize their time using standard Internet protocols over Wi-Fi connectivity.
- TimeCast™ Mesh System: Line or battery-powered clocks cascade the time to each other over a license-free wireless mesh network.
About the Spectrum Wi-Fi System
In a world where Wi-FI is all around us, National Time's Wi-Fi wireless clocks are the best wireless clock system available. Why bother with expensive transmitters and radio licensing when your building already has Wi-Fi? Best of all, two-way Wi-Fi technology allows you to monitor your clocks for correct operation at all times.
About the TimeCast™ System
This wireless technology utilizes license-free frequency bands to communicate synchronized time to all of the clocks in your building. A cost-effective base station is the heart of the system keeping accurate time using a local or internet SNTP time server. Time and other data is broadcast from the base station to nearby clocks using a low wattage transmitter. Each clock in the system can relay this data to more distant clocks.
Installation of the system is simplified with National’s exclusive interactive display on the back of each TimeCast™ clock. The display provides a user friendly interface to simplify installation as well as providing status information such as signal strength, battery strength, number of other clocks in range, time and date received,check in times, and firmware information. Help screens aid in fixing problems eliminating tech support and service calls. In the absence of a base station, the time and date can be entered by the user or acquire time from a nearby clock. This allows installation of the clocks if the network infrastructure for the base station is not yet
Standard Features of National's Wireless Clock Systems
Efficient two-way data transmission provides verification of time synchronization, battery level, signal strength, and other clock information. All of this information is available to the user via National Time’s free cloud service. Reports of clock system health can be accessed through the internet or by scheduled e-mail messages.
