2.4 Slave line connection
Connect the slave clock to terminal the L1 (LINE1). Set the type of slave line depending
on the type of clock
Fig.: Connection of clock to unified pulse line
Fig.: Connection of digital clock to system of unified time
2.5 DCF connection
The DCF receiver serves for fully automatic adjustment and synchronization of time using the
DCF radio signal with a coverage within the diameter of 1500 km around the Germany city
Frankfurt am Main. Comprehensive information about time and date is then transmitted into the
DCF transmitter located in Mainflingen near to Frankfurt. The transmitter transmits long-wave
signals at 77.5 kHz frequency. The DCF receiver guarantees absolutely precise time data with
automatic transition to the summer time.
Generally the DCF receiver is supplied with 10 m long cable, but it can be located also at a
longer distance, in which case it is advisable to connect it via a twisted pair of up to 200 m. Do
not install the receiver close to buildings consisting of metallic steel structures, near to PCs, TV
and radio receivers or in places surrounded with thick walls or into underground or cellar areas.

The magnetic GPS antenna can be connected to the HN 61 variant
2.6.2 External GPS receiver
An external GPS receiver with DCF code output, eg GPS 4500, can be connected to
the HN 61m as a source of synchronization signal
(eg if a sufficiently long extension of the coaxial cable of the magnetic GPS antenna
is not available).
2.7 Switching channel
The CH1 terminal (or RELAY 1) serves to control the externally connected equipment.
School bells or external equipment can be powered with 24 V DC.

5 SYNCHRONIZATION
The DCF synchronization type is preset for the HN 60 / 60i / 60a clock variants, and the GPS
synchronization type for the HN 61 / 61i / 61a clock variants. For HN 60m / 61m, the type of
synchronization can be selected.
In the MAIN Menu press the button to select SYNCHRONIZATION.
Button functions: change the blinking item
save the entered values and return to MAIN menu
return to the MAIN menu without saving
Sync sources, options:
DCF DCF receiver (integrated input) synchronization
GPS integrated GPS receiver synchronization
MSF MSF receiver (DCF input) synchronization
WWVB WWVB receiver (DCF input) synchronization
IN1 synchronization by external synthetic DCF source
- eg for combination HN 61m
with external GPS receiver
IN1 + DCF synchronization by two DCF signals - signal redundancy
- primary signal source is IN1 (eg external GPS receiver)
- switching to a secondary signal source (eg DCF receiver) occurs
when the primary signal is lost at IN1
- the switchback occurs after the primary signal is restored
