Allmänt
This product is a digital clock for indoor use which is synchronised via NTP. The user can set the light
intensity by a potentiometer inside the clock. The user can set the light intensity. At power failure the time is
updated in a Timekeeper circuit. After the power failure the digital clock starts up on correct time.
The network setting is made via a WEB-browser.
When synchronised, the clock is automatically set to correct time. The colon will flash when time from the NTP
server is accepted.
All versions display time in hours and minutes. Time is expressed in 24 hours format. Seconds are
shown graphically in a circle.
If time is not initially programmed "--:--" is shown instead of digits for time.
LAN connection
The digital clocks are equipped with a RJ45 (10BASE-T) connector for direct connection to the LAN via an
Ethernet switch. Each clock has a unique IP address. The IP address, gateway, subnet mask and server IP
address is set up via a WEB-browser. If DHCP is used the clock will receive its IP address automatically from
the DHCP server.
The clock is delivered with DHCP, fall-back adress 192.168.3.10.
The MAC-address is labelled at the clock.
NTP
To distribute correct time to different users in a Local Area Network (LAN) the Network Time Protocol (NTP)
is used. NTP is a part of the protocol family TCP/IP. Westerstrand digital clocks type Ethernet LAN are
operated and controlled by Time distributed in the Network.
What happens if power is down?
If power is down the diodes are turned off. The internal clock continues to keep correct time at least during 24
hours. When power is up again correct time is displayed directly.

Cable connections to the power supply board are shown in the figure below
Fig. Connection 230V AC
Mains (230V AC, 50Hz) should be connected to the Power terminal. When the clock is
permanently installed a readily accessible disconnect device shall be incorporated in the fixed
wiring. Installation fuse max10A. Power wire 1,5mm².
Connect network LAN to the RJ 45 connector located on C.P.U board at the mounting plate.

NTP >>
Enter NTP parameters.
NTP mode
Client: Ask ‘NTP server’ for time
DHCP: Ask automatically via the DHCP server (DHCP option 0042)
Broadcast: Accept broadcast time messages.
Client+ A Broadcast NTP message will restart an internal timer. If no broadcast NTP
Broadcast: messages are received, then NTP request will start automatically according
to ‘Interval(s)’.
DHCP+ A Broadcast NTP message will restart an internal timer. If no broadcast NTP
Broadcast: messages are received, the unit will try to receiver NTP server IP address by
using the DHCP server option 042. I found NTP request will start
automatically according to ‘Interval(s)’.
NTP Server Select NTP server, e.g. 192.168.1.237 or as an URL ntp1.sp.se. Also see DHCP server
above.
Country/Timez Select country. A NTP server sends UTC time. The clock will correct this to local time
and adjust for DST (Day-Light-Saving) automatically. A rule for DST (daylight saving
time) for each country is hard coded in the firmware. Also see DHCP server above.
Country Winter Summer Timezone acronym
GBR UTC+0 UTC+1 WET/WEST
CET UTC+1 UTC+2 CET/CEST
ARE UTC+4 UTC+4 United Arab Emirates
Interval Interval in seconds between NTP requests. (Used in
client/server mode only).

SNMP
SNMP is enabled in function Network. The clock will send traps to the management server and answer on
polls. The SNMP functions have been tested with a freeware program from IReasoning
(www.ireasoning.com) and with Castle Rocks Management Console SNMPc. Contact Westerstrand for
further information.
RASER
This program is used for finding network clocks and setting parameters. RASER sends broadcast messages
on UDP port 9999. All Westerstrand Ethernet controllers will answer.
Install with setup file SETUP_RASERxxx.EXE (xxx=version e.g. 107). Icon 'RaSer' is created on the
desktop. Start the program. Click on button [Help]. Manual RASER.PDF is displayed. Check this manual
for further information.
Find a Westerstrand Ethernet module
1. Set firmware mask. Examples:
* Search all Westerstrand Ethernet modules (default)
RAWEL Search only modules with letter RAWEL (Digital Clocks) in the firmware text, e.g.
RAWEL-G105
2. Set IP mask. Examples:
255 Broadcast to all, i.e. 255.255.255.255 (default)
13 Only show answers from segment 255.255.13.255
3. Click on button [Search]. The box becomes green. Program RASER will timeout after 5 seconds. Break
a search by a click on [Break].
