• power supply. : 230V 50Hz ±10%.
• operating temperature : -25°C to +70°C.
Movement and synchronisation :
• iriG-B/afnor coded time receiver
The coded time distribution consists in transmitting a complete time message every second the setting on time of the receivers is realised automatically and immediately after connection to the clock line. The IRIG-B/AFNOR coded time does not transmit interference and is insensitive to other electrical interference.
• receiver 1/2 minute serial impulses
The receiver clocks are connected to a distribution line and activated by means of electrical impulses transmitted every ½ minute by the master clock.
• servo controlled second hand
On the Profil TGV 950/970, the second hand is servo controlled which means that it is driven by a motor different than the one of the movement. The synchronisation of the second hand is done at each minute change.
