DESCRIPTION
I.) General Description of Unit:
The 1460/1461 Master Time Programmer is a microprocessor based time management unit. It
provides synchronized control of most analog and digital secondary clock systems via its clock
circuits.
The 1460/1461 contains six programmable signal circuits. Each signal circuit provides automatic
and manual control of signaling or utility devices. To increase the number of signal circuits to ten
or fourteen, simply add one (1) or two (2) Four Bell/Auxiliary Circuit Adder Option(s).
A sixteen key, multiple-function keypad allows the user to program the 1460/1461. It is also how
the user performs manual clock advance, manual operation of the signal circuits, and all call. The
abbreviated names for the keys provide a helpful reference for programming the 1460/1461.
A 16 character by 2 line LCD allows the user to monitor the 1460/1461’s status and response to
programming. Included is a backlight that either remains on continuously, or turns off after a short
time, depending on the user’s requirements.
Password security protects the system from unauthorized operation. Three levels of password
security allow selective access to the 1460/1461’s features. The ability to enable or disable
password security to some basic features, such as all call, provides even more flexibility.
The 1460/1461’s time keeping synchronizes to either AC line frequency or a quartz controlled time
base. The time of day and date, as well as unit programming, are stored in a non-volatile memory
(NVRAM). The NVRAM saves this information in the event of a power failure.
II.) Program Features:
A.) NON-VOLATILE MEMORY (NVRAM) - The NVRAM stores all time, date, and programming
information. The NVRAM has an internal lithium battery. This prevents time keeping and data
from being lost during AC power failures for up to ten years. The internal lithium battery
requires no battery charging.
B.) DAYLIGHT SAVINGS TIME - The 1460/1461 automatically changes the time of day for itself
and the secondary clocks during a change to or from Daylight Savings Time. This feature can
be “disabled” during programming if not required.
C.) LEAP YEAR - Event and calendar changes for leap year are done automatically.
D.) ALTERNATE SCHEDULE - Any one of the available 256 schedules can be implemented on a
per day basis for holidays, exam days, pep rallies, etc. The 1460/1461 will automatically return
to the main schedule the next day.
E.) ALTERNATE DATES - Up to 65 dates can be programmed into the 1460/1461 in advance to
automatically run alternate schedules for holidays, exam days, pep rallies, etc.The 1460/1461
will automatically return to the main schedule the next day.

1460/61 INSTRUCTION MANUAL
Page 8
F.) EVENTS - The 1460 allows up to 900 events per day to be entered into memory. This is
equivalent to 6300 possible events per week. Programmed events can be “start”, “stop”, or
“duration” events. “Duration” events are normally used to operate signals. “Start” and “stop”
events are usually used to turn utility devices on and off. Each “start” or “stop” event is
considered a separate event.
G.) DATE AND EVENT SCANNING - The alternate dates and events programmed into the
1460/1461 can be viewed and altered. The user can choose to scan all programmed events,
or just those connected with a certain schedule or signal circuit.
III.) System Options:
The standard 1460/1461 Master Time Programmer can be enhanced by the following options:
1464/1464R Four Bell/Auxiliary Circuit Adder Option expands the number of available signal
circuits from six to ten or fourteen. With this option, all fourteen signal circuits are independently
programmable.
1466 Master-to-Master Synchronization Option allows the 1460/1461 to synchronize or be
synchronized by another device (usually another master clock).
1467 UTC Module Option provides the 1460/61 synchronization with Universal Time Coordinated.
1468A RS-232 Port Option provides the 1460/1461 with an RS-232 serial port. The user can
enable or disable this serial port, and select its baud rate. When enabled, once a minute it will
transmit time and date to another RS-232 compatible device.
1470 Programming Software allows the programming of specific functions of the master clock by
an externally attached computer or MODEM.

e.) Restore power to the 1460 by switching its circuit breaker on at the circuit breaker panel.
i.) The 1460 should show the time and date.
ii.) The LEDs on the main board (and on the 1464(s), if installed) blink at a rate of about once
per second.
2.) Enable the display’s backlight time-out, if necessary.
a.) Determine if the application requires the display’s backlight to turn off after 2 minutes. If not,
SKIP THE REMAINDER OF STEP 2.
The display is equipped with a backlight. The backlight makes the display easier to read, but
causes the 1460 to draw slightly more current than if the backlight were not present. In most
cases, the extra current consumption is not objectionable.
b.) If the extra current consumption of having the backlight on continuously is objectionable, locate
jumper W2 on the CPU board (see diagram on page 15). W2 is provided as a means to enable
a time-out feature for the backlight. As long as W2 is installed, the display’s backlight will be
on continuously. If W2 is removed, the display’s backlight will be turned off most of the time.
If someone operates the 1460, the display’s backlight will automatically turn on. When the user
is finished operating the 1460, the display’s backlight automatically turns off about 2 minutes
later.
c.) Remove power to the 1460 by switching its circuit breaker off at the circuit breaker panel.
d.) Disable/enable the time-out feature of the display’s backlight as required.
i.) To enable the time-out feature, cut jumper W2 of the CPU board.
ii.) If you want the backlight to be on continuously and jumper W2 of the CPU board is already
cut, re-install jumper W2.
e.) Restore power to the 1460 by switching its circuit breaker on at the circuit breaker panel.
i.) The 1460 should show the time and date.
ii.) The LED on the main board (and on the 1464, if installed) blinks at a rate of about once per
second.
3.) Some applications demand a larger display than that of the 1460. For those applications, mount a
secondary clock near the Master Time Programmer.
D.) Connecting Field Devices:
CAUTION: ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD! Ensure that NO electrical power is present on any wire
before installation.
1.) Remove power to the 1460 by switching its circuit breaker off at the circuit breaker panel.
2.) Connect appropriate field wiring to the clock circuits of the 1460. See Appendix B for clock circuit
wiring diagrams.
3.) Connect appropriate field wiring to the signal circuits of the 1460. See Appendix C for signal circuit

1.) Prior to installing the 1461, ensure that all necessary parts are included in the carton. Check all
items in the carton against the Parts Checklist.
CAUTION: ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD! Ensure that ALL sources of electrical power are disconnected
from the 1461 so that no accidental contact with energized parts can be made.
CAUTION: STATIC SENSITIVE DEVICES! Be sure to wear a static grounding wrist strap or similar
protective device when working inside of the 1461 chassis.
NOTE: If an optional 1464R, 1466, 1467, or 1468A module is to be added for the initial setup,
installation should be done at this time. Refer to the Installation Instructions included with the
module or in Appendix E of this manual.
2.) Prepare the 1461 for a bench test.
a.) Place the 1461 on a table or other work surface.
b.) Remove the four #6 X 3/8" sheet metal screws holding the top cover onto the chassis. Refer to
diagram on page 21. Save these four sheet metal screws.
c.) Carefully remove the top cover.
d.) Locate the circuit board assemblies of the 1461. The main board is mounted to the bottom of the
chassis. The CPU and display boards are mounted to the front of the chassis.
e.) Ensure that all cables inside the chassis are properly connected.
i.) The six position cable is connected between J5 of the main board and J1 of the CPU board.
ii.) The twenty-four position cable is connected between J2 of the CPU board and J1 of the
display board.
f.) Connect wiring between the terminals of the main board and external field terminals to satisfy
your application. Refer to Appendices B and C for typical wiring diagrams for clock and signal
circuits.

3.) Perform a bench test on the 1461:
CAUTION: ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD! Ensure that ALL sources of electrical power are
disconnected from the 1461 PRIOR TO performing adjustments and optional module
installations so that no accidental contact with energized parts can be made.
a.) Connect a temporary AC power source to the to the 1461. The temporary AC power source
should be equipped with a switch capable of disconnecting AC power from the 1461. The wiring
diagrams on page 20 show the proper connections to external AC power terminal block of the
1461.
CAUTION: RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK! Chassis ground (“GND” terminal) MUST be connected to
conduit/Earth ground to provide proper protection from electric shock.
NOTE: Chassis ground (“GND” terminal) MUST be connected to conduit/Earth ground to provide proper
protection of Master Time Programmer circuitry.
NOTE: Do not connect field devices at this time.
b.) Apply power to the 1461 by switching on the temporary AC power source.
i.) The 1461 should show the time and date (there may be as much as a 30 second delay after
power up for the display to show time and date).
ii.) The LEDs on the main board (and on the 1464R(s), if installed) blink at a rate of about once
per second.
C.) Adjusting the Display
1.) Adjust the contrast of the display, if necessary.
a.) Contrast affects the display’s readability. The following diagram will help you decide if the
contrast of your display needs to be adjusted. IF CONTRAST OF THE DISPLAY IS ACCEPT-
ABLE, SKIP THE REMAINDER OF STEP 1.
b.) If the contrast needs to be adjusted, locate jumper W1 on the CPU board (see diagram on page
21). W1 sets the contrast for the display. If W1 is removed, the contrast becomes lighter. If W1
is installed, the contrast becomes darker.
c.) Remove power to the 1461 by switching its temporary AC power source off.
d.) Adjust the contrast of the display.
i.) If contrast is too dark, cut jumper W1 of the CPU board.
ii.) If contrast is too light and jumper W1 of the CPU board is already cut, re-install jumper W1.
e.) Restore power to the 1461 by switching its temporary AC power source on.
i.) The 1461 should show the time and date.
ii.) The LEDs on the main board (and on the 1464R(s), if installed) blink at a rate of about
once per second.

INSTALLATION
2.) Enable the display’s backlight time-out, if necessary.
a.) Determine if the application requires the display’s backlight to turn off after 2 minutes. If not,
SKIP THE REMAINDER OF STEP 2.
The display is equipped with a backlight. The backlight makes the display easier to read, but
causes the 1461 to draw slightly more current than if the backlight were not present. In most
cases, the extra current consumption is not objectionable.
b.) If the extra current consumption of having the backlight on continuously is objectionable, locate
jumper W2 on the CPU board (see diagram on page 21). W2 is provided as a means to enable
a time-out feature for the backlight. As long as W2 is installed, the display’s backlight will be on
continuously. If W2 is removed, the display’s backlight will be turned off most of the time. If
someone operates the 1461, the display’s backlight will automatically turn on. When the user is
finished operating the 1461, the display’s backlight automatically turns off about 2 minutes later.
c.) Remove power to the 1461 by switching its temporary AC power source off.
d.) Disable/enable the time-out feature of the display’s backlight as required.
i.) To enable the time-out feature, cut jumper W2 of the CPU board.
ii.) If you want the backlight to be on continuously and jumper W2 of the CPU board is already
cut,re-install jumper W2.
e.) Restore power to the 1461 by switching its temporary AC power source on.
i.) The 1461 should show the time and date.
ii.) The LEDs on the main board (and on the 1464R(s), if installed) blink at a rate of about once
per second.
3.) Some applications demand a larger display than that of the 1461. For those applications, mount a
secondary clock near the equipment rack the 1461 will be installed into.
D.) Installing the Unit into the Equipment Rack:
1.) Prepare the 1461 for installation into the equipment rack
a.) Remove the temporary AC power source used to bench test the 1461.
i.) Remove power to the 1461 by switching its temporary AC power source off.
ii.) Remove the connections between the 1461 and the temporary AC power source.
b.) Return the top cover of the 1461 onto the chassis. Use the four #6 X 3/8" sheet metal screws
removed in step III.B.2.b. to secure the top cover to the chassis.
CAUTION: ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD! Ensure that NO electrical power is present on any wire
before installation.
2.) Mount the 1461 into the equipment rack. Four slotted holes are provided on the front of the chassis.
Use the #10-32 X 3/8" machine screws provided in the installation kit when securing the 1461 to the
equipment rack.
3.) Connect the AC power wires to the 1461. The wiring diagrams on page 20 show the proper connec-
tions to external AC power terminal block of the 1461.
CAUTION: RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK! Chassis ground (“GND” terminal) MUST be connected to
conduit/Earth ground to provide proper protection from electric shock.
NOTE: Chassis ground (“GND” terminal) MUST be connected to conduit/Earth ground to provide proper
protection of Master Time Programmer circuitry.
