Important Safety Instructions
,H
|
DANGER
SHOCK HAZARD
• Keep the electricity to this device
turned OFF until the clock installation
is complete.
• Do not expose the clock movement to
water, or install the clock in a location
where it may be exposed to water.
WARNING
FIRE HAZARD
• Always follow your national and
regional electrical codes or ordinances.
• The AC power circuit for the clock
must be attached to a circuit breaker that
can be reset by the user.
PHYSICAL INJURY HAZARD
• If you are standing on an object while
installing your clock, make sure that the
object can support your weight, and will
not sway or move as you stand on it.
• Take precautions to avoid injury by
potential safety hazards near the point
of installation including (but not limited
to) heavy machinery, sharp objects, hot
surfaces, or exposed cables carrying an
electric current.
• Follow all mounting instructions exactly
as stated in this manual. Failure to do so
may result in the device falling off the
point of installation.
• Packaging materials and mounting
items include plastic bags and small
pieces, which pose a suffocation hazard
to young children.
NOTICE
• Do not install the clock outdoors.
Damage to the clock if placed outdoors
voids the warranty.
• Do not hang objects from the clock or
clock mounting parts. The clocks are not
designed to support the weight of other
objects.
• The clock face and housing may
be cleaned with a damp cloth or
disinfectant. Test other cleaning products
on a small part of the clock housing
before attempting to use on the rest of
the clock. Avoid bleach and chemicals
known to dissolve plastics.

Identify Your Clock
A label containing the part number of your clock is attached to the
clock movement.
If your part number begins with SAW-4, you own a SlimLine ABS or SQUARE clock
If your part number begins with SAW-5, you own an ALUMINUM clock
If your part number begins with SAW-6, you own a WOOD clock
Example part numbers:
SAW-4BS-12S-4 (SQUARE clock)
SAW-4BS-12R-4 (SlimLine ABS clock)
SAW-5AS-09R-1 (ALUMINUM clock)
SAW-6DS-12R-2 (WOOD clock)

To be able to set up an IP-based synchronized clock network, you will need the
following items:
• This manual
• A Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) that has access to at least one of the following:
• An in-house NTP server
• The Internet
• A firewall that is open on Ports 80, 123, and 1777
• At least one laptop or desktop computer with access to the following:
• The same LAN as the clocks
• The same subnet as the clocks
• A web browser such as Internet Explorer, Microsoft Edge, or Mozilla Firefox.
• An internal or external Wi-Fi network card.
• A wireless router or wireless access point for the LAN that operates on the subnet
192.168.0.##, and broadcasts using an 802.11 b/g/n protocol.
• Depending on the size of the network, you may need to install additional Wireless
Access Points.
• A copy of the monitor.exe program.
• Security access to all of the above items.
• A means of keeping a record of the clock serial numbers, locations, and IP addresses.
Create a table like the one shown below:

Positioning the Wireless Router or Wireless Access Point (WAP):
The main router or WAP should be installed in a central location. Depending on the transmission protocol
of your router, the clocks must be located within the following ranges:
Wi-Fi Protocol Range (Feet) Range (Meters)
8 02.11 b 115 feet 35 meters
8 02.11 g 125 feet 38 meters
8 02.11 n 230 feet 70 meters.
Check with the access point or router manufacturer, as some transmitters offer boosted ranges.
*NOTE: This clock is not compatible with 802.11a or 802.11ac protocols. Many AC-compatible routers and
access points are backwards compatible with 802.11n. Check your router settings for more information.
Be aware of walls or other obstructions made of thick concrete
or sheet metal, as these may block the signal entirely.
Logging into the SAW for the first time:
1. Power the clock. Press and release the right-side “WIFI
SW” on the movement twice. The Yellow and Orange LEDs
will light up for a few seconds, and then the Yellow LED will
become brighter.
2. On a Wi-Fi enabled computer, check the available Wireless
Networks. Refresh the available networks until a network
named CLOCK_#### appears (where #### is the serial number of the clock). This may take up to 30
seconds. Once it appears, connect to this network.
3. Open a web browser and enter the following web address into the URL field:
http://192.168.240.1/login.html
4. On the login page, use the password 6063 to log into the clock.
5. Click on the Network Settings button.

Synchronization System Setup (ctd.)
6. In the Network field, enter the SSID of your preferred Wi-Fi network. This is the name that appears
if you try to connect to that Wi-Fi network on any other computer, tablet, or smart phone.
7. In the Network Password field, enter the password of your preferred Wi-Fi network. Network
passwords must be twenty-six characters or fewer.
8. If you wish to set a static IP address, change DHCP Auto On from ON to OFF, then enter information
for the Static IP address, Subnet Mask, and Gateway Address. To acquire this information, contact your
network administrator.
9. If you wish to set a DNS server other than the one provided through DHCP, change Auto DNS from
ON to OFF, then enter an IP address for a new DNS server in the DNS Address field.
10. Press the Submit button, followed by the Log Out button.
11. The clock should connect to the new Wi-Fi network. Confirm by accessing the clock with the IP
Monitor (If clock DHCP is on and the computer is on the same subnet as the Access Point) or the new
static IP address (if clock DHCP is off). If the clock is not accessible, press the WiFi SW button once and
wait thirty seconds before trying to access the clock with the IP monitor or IP address. If the clock is still
not accessible, refer to the section of this manual labeled “Troubleshooting”
For battery powered clocks: For the first ten minutes after powering on a new (or recently reset-to-
default) clock will be accessible once every minute. Once the user has entered and saved new network
settings, the clock will only connect to the network once to make initial contact, then it will not access
the network again until the next synchronization period four hours later. To force the clock to power its
transmitter, the user must press the WiFI SW button.

1) If you are installing a new gang box in the wall,
leave at least 4 inches between the top of the gang
box and ceiling. Confirm that the bottom of the
gang box is level with the floor.
If you are using an existing gang box, the top of the

2) Run power wiring to the gang box.
Pull the YELLOW and ORANGE wires out of
the connector.
CHECK YOUR WIRING
The voltage between the white and black wires
should measure 105-126 volts AC in the 115
volt model, 207-253 volts AC in the 230 volt
model, or 21.5-26.5 volts AC/DC in the 24
volt model.
If you are using the 24 volt model, make sure
that the wiring leading to the clock is from an
ISOLATED transformer.
