Set up the Clock
1. To power up the clock, connect a CAT 5 or higher Ethernet patch cable (A) to a PoE
switch (Fig. 1) or single injector (Fig. 2) and to the rear panel. The time should display in
20-40 seconds.
—PoE Switch (Fig.1) - Check with network administrator for infrastructure needs. This part
is not supplied by American Time.
—PoE Injector (TMA200) (Fig. 2) - This is an optional power source that may be
purchased from American Time.
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.

Hang your clocks
1. Mount the included bracket to a gang box or to the wall, using at least two of the
holes on the bracket.
2. Insert the spring legs on the bracket in the channel at the rear bottom of the clock.
3. Push the clock up to compress the springs, then push the top of the clock towards the
wall to insert the bracket studs in the keyhole slots on the clock backplate.
3. Release the clock. The bracket studs should slide into the upper portion of the keyhole
slots to retain the clock. If the studs have not seated, wiggle the clock gently until the
studs align with the slots and slide into place.
