Smart-Sync Analog Clock Install
Learn how to install and operate an Analog Clock.
![](/img.php?id=3324861&img=bgc.png)
Installation and Operation Overview
Smart-Sync Clocks are designed to provide ease of installation - requiring no end-user configuration, simply take-out-of the box
and install. The only operation dependency is its connection to an available Smart-Sync Bluetooth Wireless Network.
lSmart-Sync Clocks are equipped with a Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) Wireless Technology radio component, that allows the
clock to establish a wireless connection to a Smart-Sync Bluetooth Wireless Network.
lA Smart-Sync Clock is identified by a unique Device ID, allowing each clock to receive its unique Device ID settings
managed in OneVue, and also authenticate to a Smart-Sync Bluetooth Wireless Network.
lA Smart-Sync Bridge is the only system device that connects to your facility’s network. Upon its network connection, it sends
Smart-Sync clock data to OneVue and downloads clock settings, and connects to its NTP time source to receive UTC time.
The Smart-Bridge then sends downloaded clock settings and UTC time to Smart-Sync clocks over the Smart-Sync Bluetooth
Wireless Network.
The sections below define clock operation at time of installation and post-installation.
Before you begin
Confirm a Smart-Sync Bridge, designated to support the clock installation area, has established a network connection to OneVue.
A Smart-Bridge must have connected to OneVue and its NTP Time source to allow Smart-Sync Clocks to receive their time and a
daily connection schedule.
Installation - Clock Self-Discovery
Upon first-power up at its installation location, a new clock shall go through a self-discovery process as defined below.
1. Clock continuously searches for an available Smart-Sync Bluetooth Wireless Network.
2. Upon its connection to a Bluetooth Wireless Network, it establishes a communication path either to another Smart-Sync
Clock or directly to a Smart-Sync Bridge available within the Bluetooth Wireless Network.
3. Clock receives time from either a Smart-Sync Clock or directly from a Smart-Sync Bridge.
4. Smart-Sync Bridge receives the new clock Device ID and sends the clock Device ID to OneVue over your facility's network
within 30 minutes.
5. Upon the Smart-Sync 's connection to OneVue, the new clock Device ID is automatically added to OneVue and the clocks
unique Device ID settings are downloaded to the Smart-Sync Bridge.
6. Smart-Sync Bridge automatically sends the Device ID settings to the new clock over its connection to the Bluetooth Wireless
Network.
Post-Installation Operation
Upon completion of the self-discovery process, a Smart-Sync Clock operates as described below.
1. Smart-Bridge connects to your facility’s network to download Smart-Sync Clocks’ setting updates from OneVue, and
connects to its NTP time source(s) to receive UTC time.
2. Smart-Sync Clocks automatically connect once a day at its system defined daily schedule to a Smart-Sync Bluetooth
Wireless Network. At the time of connection, the clocks' statuses are forwarded to a Smart-Sync Bridge either by its
communication path to another Smart-Sync Clock or directly to a Smart-Sync Bridge. The clocks receive setting updates
and synchronizes received UTC time to its Time Zone offset and DST rules.
3. Smart-Sync Bridge establishes a network connection to your facility's network to forward clock status data to OneVue.

Installation Requirements Smart-Sync Analog Clocks
Refer to the Important Safety Instructions before installing, operating or performing maintenance of clocks.
Installation requirements
A Smart-Sync Bridge or Smart-Sync Clock/Timer is within 80 feet (24.3 m) from the clock installation location.
AC-powered analog clock installation guidelines
A socket-outlet is required to be available within 18 in. (45.72 cm) from the clock installation location and should be easily
accessible. Refer to the table below for power specifications.
Model Input Power Current Draw
AC-Powered Single-sided 120V~, 47-63Hz 67mA@120V~
AC-Powered Dual-sided 120V~, 47-63Hz 134mA@120V~
AC-Powered clocks are supplied with a power cord with a two-prong plug. The two-prong plug may be removed for a hardwired
(pigtail) installation. Hardwired installation requires a 120V~ power line in a junction box installed by a licensed electrician. Leave
a minimum of 6 in. (15 cm) of cord inside the junction box.
