Operation

When connected to AC power, the AT-MSX automatically

powers up and an LED on the case bottom flashes 3 times then

begins flashing every 2 seconds indicating that the AT-MSX is

waiting to receive an AirTime radio signal. The LED will flash

brighter upon receipt of an AirTime signal. The AT-MSX will set

its internal clock to the exact time and the LED will flash every

second to indicate normal operation. The unit will transmit

the Lathem RS485 digital signal once per minute, to provide

time synchronization to other Lathem devices. It also closes

the dry relay contact for two (2) seconds once per day at 23

hours 59 minutes and 58 seconds to provide a synchronization

time reference signal to external third party devices such as an

intercom system.

Physical

enclosure. The bottom of the enclosure features a five (5)

place removable terminal block connector for wiring to
