The Multi-Function
Controller board (MFC) has been developed to cover the basic
operations required in typical public clock controller systems.
Standard Features:
- Full MSF or GPS signal decoder (antenna
available separately)
- Selectable Westminster or Ting-Tang
quarter striking - variable speed
- Hour striking - variable speed
- Selectable night silencing periods
- Up to 8 Strike relay drivers available -
500mA availability per output
- Variable hammer pulse width
- Self disciplining oscillator
maintains accurate time keeping during MSF or GPS signal absence
- Panel mount or chassis option
Optional Features:
- 230v 50Hz UPS output driven from backup
battery
- Automatic winter/summertime clock
correction by stopping synchronous motor clocks for either 1 hr or 11
hr's (MSF only)
- Variable output power control
- Auto restart facility in UPS mode that
will stop clock and restart at the correct time where power failure is
greater than useable battery capacity)
Electrical and Physical Specification
- Working Voltage - 6 to 40 V unregulated
(13.8V only for UPS version)
- Power consumption - 200mA to 800mA
dependent on feature use
- Board size - 90mm x 120mm
As the whole unit is software based,
specialist requirements such as master clock signal decoding, general
motor and lighting control etc. can be met through rapid development and
test methods to get the OEM product to market quickly and reliably.
All standard feature design and software
listings held by Escrow arrangement. Similar arrangements for specialist
requirements can also be made.
