Operation manual for the DC-Webserver-Clocks-1
The DC-Webserver-Clocks-1 allows easy and efficient monitoring of all the DC-Digital network
clocks* on your network. With this device, you can see each clock’s network settings (and
make changes to said settings), the time each clock currently displays, the last time it
attempted to query the time from an NTP server, and whether that attempt was successful or
not.
The DC-Webserver-Clocks-1 kit contains:
(1) DC-Webserver-Clocks-1 unit
(1) DC-12-700 power supply
(1) 7ft CAT5 network patch cable
Connections:
Operation:
On the back of the DC-Webserver-Clocks-1 you will find connections
