Analog Clock Installation
Before installing, verify the network infrastructure with the Network Administrator. The Power over Ethernet (PoE) power solution
and Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) settings should be determined. The PoE clock locations and cabling routes
should also be determined prior to installation.
1. Apply power to the clock by connecting a CAT 5 (A) or higher Ethernet patch cable from a PoE switch (Fig. 1) or single
injector (Fig. 2) to the PoE receiver (F).
• PoE Switch: Check with the Network Administrator for infrastructure needs. This part is not supplied by American Time.
• PoE Injector (TMA200): This is an optional power source that may be purchased from American Time
2. The Status LED (B) will indicate the clocks status as follows:
• Flashing Orange: Acquiring an IP address using DHCP
• Flashing Red: Attempting SNTP sync
• Continuous Red: Failed SNTP sync
• Flashing Green: Received SNTP sync
• Continuous Green: Successful SNTP sync
Note: When a DHCP network is not present at initial start-up, the PoE clock will default to a random Static IP in the range of
169.254.1.0 to 169.254.254.255. The IP address may be reset by restoring the clock factory defaults by holding in the Default
Button (D) for 10 seconds and releasing. Both Status and Buzzer LEDs will flash for 5 seconds to confirm the defaults setting.
Please reference the DHCP troubleshooting section if you are experiencing DHCP issues.
3. The Buzzer LED (C) designates if the Buzzer is enabled. The Buzzer is an optional feature.
4. Place the clock on the wall using the keyhole hanger (E) on the back of the clock or the optional security bracket.
Note: If hanging your clock over an Ethernet jack, see Figure 3.
