The large display VP100/20 is a 50mm hight LED matrix display that shows time and
date 20 character wide as follows: day of the week, day of month, month, hours,

Front View

The DCF variant provides automatic changeover of daylight saving. In case of

supply voltage failure the on board RTC keeps the time based on XTAL for at least 10
years. Time and Date can be displayed in different languages. The wall mounted
housing of the VP100/20 is made of plastic coated steel sheet.

The power connector, the antenna input and the RS232/20mA interfaces provided

by VP100/20 are accessible via connectors in the rear panel of the case.

Installation

Power Supply

The requested supply voltage is applied via the power cord receptacle in the rear
panel. After connecting the power cord and the antenna (only DCF variant) the system
is ready to operate. Time and date become visible on the display.
