Safety regulations
The safety regulations and observance of the technical data serve to
ensure trouble-free operation of the device and protection of persons and
material. It is therefore of utmost importance to observe and compliance
with these regulations.
If these are not complied with, then no claims may be made under the
terms of the warranty and no liability will be assumed for any ensuing
damage.
Safety of the device
This device has been manufactured in accordance with the latest
technological standards and approved safety regulations
The device should only be put into operation by trained and qualified staff.
Care must be taken that all cable connections are laid and fixed in
position correctly. The device should only be operated with the voltage
supply indicated on the identification label.
The device should only be operated by qualified staff or employees who
have received specific instruction.
If a device must be opened for repair, this should only be carried out by
employees with appropriate qualifications or by hopf Elektronik GmbH.
Before a device is opened or a fuse is changed all power supplies must
be disconnected.
If there are reasons to believe that the operational safety can no longer be
guaranteed the device must be taken out of service and labelled
accordingly.
The safety may be impaired when the device does not operate properly or
if it is obviously damaged.
CE-Conformity
This device fulfils the requirements of the EU directive
89/336/EWG "Electromagnetic compatibility" and 73/23/EWG "Low
voltage equipment".

1 7001RC System Description
The hopf system 7001RC was developed as a central clock system to undertake complex
time distribution tasks. It can provide interfaces for industrial computers, process control
systems and control devices, synchronize networks, control slave clocks and much more. All
'RC-Function Boards' of the system 7001RC (with the exception of the control board
7020RC) are hot-plug-compatible and as such can be disconnected from and reconnected to
any point on the operating system at any time, without affecting the operation of other
'RC-Function Boards'.
The system’s 7020RC control board communicates, via the internal system bus, with the
'RC-Function Boards' that are integrated into the system, and simultaneously monitors these
boards for faults.
Due to its modular structure the system can be configured individually for each application
and is easy to upgrade or modify if the application conditions change.
hopf 'Function Boards' for 19" systems can also be integrated into the system alongside the
'RC-Function Boards'.
In addition to the standard quartz generator, the 7020RC control board can also be equipped
with an oven-stabilized OCXO quartz generator, which increases the accuracy of the system
when operating in independent mode. See Chapter 8 Technical Data System 7001RC .
Some base functions of the system 7001RC
Operation via remote software
Hot-plug compatibility
Display blanking to increase the lifetime of the display
Sync-OFF timer (reception failure) for operation without error messages, even in
difficult reception conditions
Redundant, multiple verification of the synchronization signal for error-free and leap-
free signal evaluation
Maintenance-free, buffered back-up clock for three days
Error monitoring of the integrated 'RC-Function Boards'
System 5000 (Switch-Box) control for redundant systems
True Time Server functionality – also upgradeable in the future
Extension options
Evaluation of several synchronization sources (multi-source system)
7020RC control board can be extended with OCXO as quartz base to provide very
high accuracy in independent operation
Redundant power supply for the system 7001RC via 2 power supply units and a
coupling card for interconnecting 2 power supply units
Additional power supply for internal line voltage for the 'RC-Function Board' 7406RC.
Extension of the 1/1 19" rack by an additional 3U (height units) to 6U.
Customer-specific system adaptations for bespoke project solutions.
