Valcom 12” & 16” Wireless Clock Installation Manual (Rev 1.02)

Valcom 5614 Hollins Road Roanoke, VA 24019 Phone: (540) 563-2000 Fax: (540) 362-9800 www.valcom.com

There are four (4) ways to install Valcom’s Analog Wireless Clock system. The user can choose

any of the combinations listed below, or any combination of the three (3).

Option #1:

There is a main high powered transceiver in the building (V-WMCA) and repeaters (V-

WMCRA) as needed to cover the entire premise. In this option, the system does not depend

on the slave clocks for transmission.

Option #2:

There is at least one (1) high powered transceiver (V-WMCA) in the building and in order to

cover the entire premise, the battery-operated clocks are used as transceivers/repeaters.

Option #3:

There is at least one (1) high powered transceiver (V-WMCA) in the building and in order to

cover the entire premise, the power (24V or 110V) operated clocks are used as transceiv-

ers/repeaters.

Option #4:

There are multiple transmitters that will cover the entire building or campus.

Operational Instructions

Valcom 5614 Hollins Road Roanoke, VA 24019 Phone: (540) 563-2000 Fax: (540) 362-9800 www.valcom.com

IMPORTANT: We highly recommend installing the main transceiver (V-WMCA) before the

installation of the Valcom Wireless analog clocks.

In order to install the clock, simply remove the battery cover, and install two (2) D cell batteries

(recommended battery type: Duracell®PROCELL®). After installation of the batteries, replace the

battery cover and the clock should start correcting within five (5) minutes.

Normal Mode/Economy Mode

The Valcom Wireless Analog Series clocks have two (2) different modes in which they will operate.

Normal mode allows the clock to transmit/receive every two (2) hours. This mode will allow the

clock to have a 5 year battery life (provided good reception). Economical mode allows the clock to

transmit/receive every four (4) hours. This mode will allow the clock to have a 8 year battery life

(provided good reception).

Normal mode is defaulted when shipped from the factory.

To toggle this mode, push and release the Diagnostic Switch and the Transmit/Receive switch si-

multaneously. If 5 year mode is selected, the LED will be solid RED for one minute and the second

hand will go to 5 (25 seconds). If 8 year mode is selected, the LED will be solid GREEN for one

minute and the second hand will go to 8 (40 seconds).

IMPORTANT: If a clock is being added to an existing system (existing clocks date coded

prior to December 2009), it must be in normal mode.

Initial Setup

1. All wireless clock systems require at least one master transmitter. This may be a V-WMCA

Wireless Master Clock, a V-GPS-TX Wireless Master Clock with GPS or a V-WMCRA Wire-

less Repeater (configured as a transmitter) that is connected to an appropriate Valcom system.

2. The master transmitter should be installed and operational prior to the installation of any wire-

less clocks. The preferred location for the master transmitter is typically in a central location

that will minimize the number of obstructions (walls, etc) between the master transmitter and

the wireless clocks.

3. Clocks should be installed concentrically from the location of the master transmitter.

4. Once a clock is installed and powered (either by installing the batteries or connection to 24V (ac

or dc) or 110V 60 Hz ac) it should correct within 5 minutes. If the clock (clock “A” for discus-

sion) does not correct within 5 minutes, press the Transmit/Receive button once on the closest

clock that has corrected within the past 12 hours (clock “B” for discussion). The second hand of

clock “B” will move to “8” indicating that it is locked in the transmit mode. Next, press the

Transmit/Receive button on clock “A” twice. The second hand of clock “B” will move to “4”

indicating that it is locked in the receive mode. If clock “A” still does not correct, there is too

much distance between clocks. Valcom recommends a maximum clocks separation of 60 feet.

Clocks that have been forced into transmit or receive will automatically resume normal opera-

tion within 10 minutes.

Operational Instructions

Notes:

Refer to the diagnostics section for useful information.

Additional master transmitters or V-WMCRA Wireless Repeaters may be added as necessary and/or to

propagate correction signal between buildings.

The coverage of the master transmitter will vary based upon building construction. This is typically not

important as each wireless clock acts as a repeater.

Upon application of power, if correction signal is received, the clock will briefly enter diagnostic 2 and

the second hand’s landing position will indicate signal strength.

Frequently Asked Questions

What battery size do I use for the wireless clock?

The batteries required are two (2) “D” cell batteries. The recommended battery type is “Duracell®:

Procell®[D] size”.

Will the clock cause interference with any of my other wireless devices?

No, the Valcom analog wireless clock works on 915 - 928 MHz frequency-hopping technology.

The clock switches frequencies automatically when the receiver and transceiver is open, thus inter-

ference is avoided.

Is there any advantage to a powered clock system as opposed to a battery operated system,

assuming a single transceiver is in the building (V-WMCA)?

The powered wireless clock receives and transmits every minute and in locations where the signal is

marginal, the likelihood of receiving a signal increases because of the frequent transmission rate.

What is the advantage of having multiple transceivers V-WMCA on a powered clock system?

Assuming the distances between the clocks is sufficient to receive the signal with an analog clock,

there is no advantage of multiple transceivers on a powered system.

How long does it take for the clock to receive a signal?

Upon power up of the clock, the receiver will be turned on for a half hour until the signal is ac-

quired. If the user wishes to manually look for the signal, press the Transmit/Receive switch twice

on the movement.

Can the clocks be set manually to display the correct time at installation (as a temporary measure

until the master clock is installed)?

Valcom wireless clocks can NOT be set manually.

What happens if I power up the clock and the clock is not moving?

The clock should move at normal speed upon power up. If it does not move at normal speed, check the

battery and make sure the clock receives power. Also, be sure to remove the pin prior to starting up the

clock.

What happens if the clock does not receive the signal?

Take the clock within close proximity to the transceiver and power up the clock. If the clock is battery-

operated, remove the battery and put the battery back in again.

Also, press the Transmit/Receive switch once on the clock closest to the clock that is working. The sec-

ond hand will go to the forty (40) second location notifying the user that the clock is transmitting the

signal. Then go to the clock that isn’t working and press the Transmit/Receive switch twice. The sec-

ond hand will go to the twenty (20) second location notifying the user it is looking for the signal. This

should get the signal to the clock.

If the clock does not correct, call Valcom technical support.

What happens if the clock shows the wrong time?

Move the clock to Diagnostic #1 in order to find the last time that it received the signal.

Perform a Diagnostic #3 to check the gears for the clock.

How do you know if the clock receives a good signal?

Perform Diagnostic #2. See page 10 for detailed instructions.

I have a location with a marginal signal. What should I do?

a. Try to install the transceiver in a nearby area.

b. If budget is an issue, install one (1) powered clock.

What can I do if I have a clock in a location where the distance is too far away from the last

clock?

Install a repeater, part number V-WMCRA, to give additional distance to the clock system.
