Please review the list below for the exciting new features in this release:
This is our 5th generation limited edition MOD-SIX system which builds upon prior releases and introduces the unique ability to drive other GPS disciplined Nixie clocks using our new TimeLink device and RPTR-OLED. The new TimeLink receiver plugs into any third party GPS-capable Nixie clock with either an RS232 or TTL input and then receives Time, Date, and GPS Coordinates served up by the RPTR-OLED receiving station. RPTR OLED’s Time Sync output is now adjustable in 100ms increments so any variations in time sync a third party clock electronics may exhibit can be easily corrected. And of course RPTR-OLED drives all your MOD-SIX’s with our compliment of parameters; 4 and 6 letter WORD Display,Time/Date/GPS coordinates, Barometric Pressure, Humidity, and Temperature. The new MOD-SIX/RPTR-OLED firmware is now accurate to the second compared to NIST. However, the clock firmware can be adjusted in 1/16 seconds and thereby matched up with any correction chosen on the RPTR for the other manufacturers clocks.
