2. Installation procedures

2.1 System requirements

·Personal computer: The QUANCOM cards run with all

·Bus: Your computer must have the corresponding bus.

(PCI / USB)

In chapter “Technical hardware description” you’ll find more informations about the System

requirements.

2.2 Safety precautions

For the sake of your security and the faultless function of your new QUANCOM board mind

the following advice:

·Before opening the computer please unplug it.

·Computer motherboards and components contain very delicate integrated circuit (IC)

chips. To protect them against damage from static electricity, you must follow some

precautions whenever you work on your computer. Use a grounded wrist strap before

handling computer components. If you don’t have one, touch both of your hands to a safely

grounded object or to a metal object, such as the power supply case.

·Hold components by the edges and try not to touch the integrated circuit chips, leads or

circuitry.

·Place components on a grounded anti-static pad or on the bag that came with the

component whenever the components are separated from the System.

Modifications, made to the device without explicit permission from

QUANCOM, lead to the loss of the operating permission and the CE

certificate.

Installation procedures4

2.3 Installation of the DCF-Clock interface board

Always turn the system power off and remove the power cord from the

wall before installing or removing any device.

Always pay regard to static electricity precautions.

See “Safety precautions”

1. Switch off the computer and the connected devices and unplug them. Static electricity

can destroy your computer and the board!

Discharge yourself as described in chapter ”Safety precautions”.

2. To open your PC you have to detach the four safety

screws on the back of the case with a screw driver.

Then you can pull the cover forwards. If necessary

you must remove impeding cables.

3. The slots are positioned at the rear side of your

computer. Unused slots are covered by a small metal

plate. Search for a free slot, detach its holding screw

and remove the small metal plate belonging to it.

4. Position the extension card into a free slot Pay attention that the card is set firmly in the

slot.

5. Fasten the board with the screw of the small metal plate on the back wall.

6. Close the cover of your computer. Cables, that you detached during the installation,

should now be reconnected.

7. Connect the cable of the board into the slot belonging to it.

2.4 Connecting the USB- Module

Switch on the PC and start Windows. Install the driver as shown in chapter “Installing the

CLOCK77/USB for Windows XP/2000” or ”Installing the CLOCK77/USB for Windows

ME/98 and after that you safely can connect the USB-Module to the PC. If you do otherwise,

Windows won’t find the drivers and the module won’t work properly.

To locate the USB-connectors of your PC you have to look into the manual of your

motherboard or PC-System. The location varies from model to model.

Installation procedures6

3. Technical hardware description

3.1 Product Information

With the CLOCK77 we developed a new product for the PC which can be attached easily to

every computer and provides the atomic exact time-of-day. The deviation is approx. one

second in 300,000 years.

The data from the receiver of the CLOCK77 is processed by a Windows

XP/2000/NT/ME/98/95 background task. There is also a DOS-TSR (Terminate and Stay

Resistant) background program for Windows 3.1x and Dos which processes data from the

CLOCK77 (except the CLOCK77/USB which depends on support of USB through the

Operating System).

After the complete clock code is received, the software adjusts the PC clock to the received

atomic exact time and date value. This means that in the future, the user can ignore the

often reoccurring and disturbing deviations of the PC clock completely. Once connected with

the PC and installed, even the annoying conversion of summer to winter time belongs to the

past. Thanks to the signals from the German Mainflingen, CLOCK77 accomplishes this

function independently.

The receiver module is delivered with one lead, approx. 5m, and a D-SUB plug connector or

USB-connector. All necessary signals and power supply for the module are supplied by the

interface.

The cable of the CLOCK77/PCI + CLOCK77/ISA of receiver can be extended on up to 20m.

For distances more largely we offer an additional CLOCK AMPLIFIER,with which you can

attach the receiver up to 100m far away from the CLOCK77 to 20m.

CLOCK77 is available in three versions: CLOCK77/USB, CLOCK77/PCI and

CLOCK77/ISA.The modules are attached to the PC-Interface-board or to the

USB-connector. All CLOCK77-systems are delivered with driver-support for Windows XP /

2000 / NT / ME / 98 / 95 and DOS / Windows 3.x. For all other Operating systems a sample
