ATX6 Installation and User Guide

14 Time Slot: (A or 0~9)

To support systems that include multiple Transceivers using the same Frequency Channel, AirTime Transceivers can automatically determine their position in a network of transceivers. In most cases, the ATX6 will determine its own position by listening to transmissions from other Transceivers in the area. To select this feature, set the parameter value to Automatic.

In installations with an ATX Transceiver receiving the time from WWVB and transmitting it to multiple ATX6’s or a combination of ATX6’s and ATX Repeaters, Channel Interference may be avoided by setting specific “Transmission Slots” for each Transceiver. The ATX and ATX6 Transceivers can be set to transmit on one of ten Transmission Slots, numbered 0 through 9. When manually selecting a Transmission Slot following this chart will often provide the best results:

(0/1)

Use the INC button to toggle between Enabling (‘1’) and Disabling (‘0’) the transmission of radio signals to synchronize Lathem’s RC-series Wall Clocks. If there are no RC-series Wall Clocks in the system, or if they are to be controlled by a separate RC-MASTER, then RC Emulation should be disabled. Press SET when the correct value shows.
