TYPE 15—Straight Frequency

Clock correction and bell circuit operations are generated by sequentially applying vari-
ous frequencies onto the 120Vac. Each bell and clock correction circuit has its own
frequency and a receiver circuit that applies the associated bell or clock frequency
(3,510Hz normally used for clock signals). The daylight saving feature advances clocks
correctly but has no means, other than normal 12-hour correction, to correct secondary
clocks at 2:00 AM. The time sequence of applying the frequencies to the 120Vac is
shown below and is controlled by the bell and system relays in the master clock.

Note:
Bells must be programmed one minute ahead of desired time. Bells are inhibited dur-
ing the 58th minute and will not work during manual clock corrections either.
