digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to
provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential
installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency
energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may
cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no
guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this
equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which
can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to
try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
a) Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
b) Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
c) Connect the equipment to an outlet on a circuit different from that to
which the receiver is connected.
d) Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician.
FCC Warning
Modifications not expressly approved by the manufacturer could
void the user authority to operate the equipment under FCC Rules.
"Instructions concerning human exposure to radio
frequency electromagnetic fields.
To comply with FCC Section 1.307 (b)(1) for human exposure to radio
frequency electromagnetic fields,
implement the following instruction:
A distance of at least 20cm. between the
equipment and all persons should be

The SAL Series clocks is a wireless analog clock is available in battery operated,
110V or 24V power input. The SAL Wireless clocks are also available in 12” and 16”
versions, as well as single and double mount styles. It is designed to work with the
STR Series Transmitter/Master Clock. The wireless system is interchangeable with
Sapling’s SBL Series digital clock. The 110V and 24V wireless analog series
receives and transmits time every minute, as opposed to the battery-operated version
which receives and transmits time every four (4) hours.
Sapling’s revolutionary SAL Series wireless clock has been designed to work in
environments when cabling options are not available. The SAL clock Series works in
915-928 mHz frequency-hopping technology. The innovative 915-928 mHz
frequency-hopping technology transmits data along several alternating signal
frequencies. This multi-layer approach guarantees an enhanced signal even if there is
interference in one of the frequencies. The unit can both receive and transmit wireless
signals which allows it to be used as a repeater, boosting the data stream and sending
it along the system. There is no limitation to the number of clocks in the installation.
The SAL Series clocks are designed to work together, without causing any
interference with each other in an automatic fashion. The more clocks in a specific
area would increase the quality of the signal.
The SAL Series clock is designed to work in conjunction STR Series Transmitter that
is capable of working as a master clock for a new system, it can act as a signal
booster to extend the range of a wireless system, or it can be used to translate an
existing system into a wireless system. Sapling’s high power wireless Transmitter
allows the user to create a wireless clock system from an existing hard-wired system.
The transmitter incorporates multifunction software so that every transmitter can
transmit and receive signals.
Distances of the SAL Series Analog Clock is 656 feet (200 meters) in open space
which allows for a typical 164 feet (50 meters) within a building (typical distances
Distances of the STR Series Transmitter Analog Clock is 3280 feet (1000
meters) in open space which allows for a typical 492 feet (150 meters)
within a building (typical distances will vary depending on the type of the
building, wall construction, number of walls and etc.)
