Set Digital Display Intensity

The digital clock display intensity is controlled with a scale of 1 to 14 with 14 being brightest. Enter the

value for the desired intensity setting.

Set Digital Display Type

Allows configuration for time display (12 and 24 hour) for 4 and 6 digit clocks, or date display

(MM/DD/YY or DD/MM/YY) for 6 digit clocks.

Set Digital Display Options

The digital clock display special options may be adjusted. This includes displaying dashes when an

NTP timeserver is not present along with a delay function to display the dashes.

Set Analog Clock Hourly/Twice Daily Correction

[Note: This menu item feature has been retained for backward compatibility with a discontinued model

of analog clock with AC synchronous only. This feature does not apply to the stepper motor analog

clock, or digital clocks.]

Soft Reset

The network clock may be restarted with a soft reset command to allow the device to clear its current

communications buffer and re-initialize its processing, includes re-requesting of a DHCP address. This

feature is intended to allow the user to remotely attempt to clear issues with the unit. This feature does

not restore the unit to its factory default state. This command is essentially equivalent to the right click

menu item “Reset Device” under WinDiscovery and the automatic soft restart built into the clock.

Reset Configuration

The network clock may be reset from telnet. Use this command sparingly as it will reset the unit to

initialize and utilize DHCP IP addressing mode by default, and will likely change the IP address of the

unit, making the communication via telnet impossible until the new IP address of the unit is configured

or known.

If this command fails to clear an issue with the clock, a hard reset may be in order to return the unit to its

factory default state. In certain [rare] instances it may become necessary to access the configuration

reset switch to return the network clock to its factory default settings or to recover from a non-

responsive condition. Consult the section “Reset Factory-Default Configuration” under the

“Configuration” section of this manual.

Set stepper hand position analog clock

[Note: this menu items applies to analog stepper motor models only.]
