Rapco type 419

High-readability rack-mounted Remote Time Display

 

419 FRONT PANEL  

THE 419 IS DESIGNED TO PROVIDE A HIGH-READABILITY TIME DISPLAY SUITABLE FOR USE IN A WIDE RANGE OF AMBIENT LIGHT CONDITIONS.

THE UNIT OCCUPIES ONLY 2U OF RACK SPACE AND HAS SHORT FRONT-TO-BACK DIMENSIONS, ALLOWING EASY RACK-FACE MOUNTING WITHOUT WEIGHT SUPPORT.

The 1-inch LED digits allow (theoretical) viewing distances up to 10 metres, but the exceptionally high quality of this display [ brightness, contrast and lack of reflections ] results in a practical figure of up to 15 metres in most conditions; the off-axis readability is also excellent.

The display is adjustable through 8 distinct brightness levels, making the 419 suitable for use in situations ranging from 'radar-room' (near darkness) scenarios to very high light-level areas such as airfield control towers. Brightness adjustment is made via a tamper-resistant recessed button at the front panel, allowing easy in-situ control of intensity of the display.

The 419 is driven by RS422 data packets via a screened twisted-pair cable from Rapco 1804, 1814 or 2804 GPS sources. A low transmission-Baud-rate, and slew-rate-limited drivers in these sources ensure high integrity of data transmission.
Up to ten displays may be 'daisy-chain' connected to the same cable over distances of greater than 100 metres
if suitable quality cable is used. Each unit in the chain is locally powered from 220/230/240V 50Hz ac supplies.

 

Nine-digits are provided, arranged for IRIG-style 'Time of year' display, as:
DAY-OF-YEAR, HOUR, MINUTE, SECOND.
A digit-select button allows the display to be reconfigured to show only:
7 digits -- DAY-OF-YEAR, HOUR, MINUTE.
6 digits -- HOUR, MINUTE, SECOND.
4 digits -- HOUR, MINUTE.

 

A discrete led in the corner of the display window indicates incoming data failure, due to cable or source faults.
In addition, a separate indicator shows when the source is in an 'alarm' state, for example during loss of GPS signals, even if valid data is still being received by the 419.
The unit will continue to count time when the incoming data is lost, using an internal Quartz oscillator as a
timebase. The display will revert to showing the incoming data as soon as valid new frames are received.

In the event that an approximate (manually-set) time display is required in the absence of incoming data, the internal back-up clock can be set and started from additional buttons on the front panel.

Rapco type 1405

Low-profile rack-mounted Remote Time display

1405 FRONT PANEL  

                                                                                                                                            1405 REAR PANEL     

THE 1405 OFFERS ALL THE FEATURES OF THE LARGER 419, EXCEPT THAT IT HAS ½ INCH DIGITS AND IS PACKAGED INTO ONLY 1U OF RACK HEIGHT, WITH SHORT FRONT-TO-BACK DIMENSIONS.

THE EXCEPTIONALLY HIGH-QUALITY LED DISPLAY IS DESIGNED TO PROVIDE A TIME-READOUT SUITABLE FOR USE IN A WIDE RANGE OF AMBIENT LIGHT CONDITIONS.

The ½ inch LED digits are adjustable through 8 distinct brightness levels, making the 1405 suitable for use in situations ranging from 'radar-room' (near darkness) scenarios to very high light-level areas such as airfield control towers. Brightness adjustment is made via a tamper-resistant recessed button at the front panel, allowing easy in-situ control of intensity of the display. Practical viewing range is typically 10 metres, with good off-axis readability

The 1405 is driven by RS422 data packets via a screened twisted-pair cable from Rapco 1804, 1814 or 2804 GPS sources. A low transmission-Baud-rate, and slew-rate-limited drivers in these sources ensure high integrity of data transmission.

Up to ten displays may be 'daisy-chain' connected to a single source over distances of greater than 100 metres
if suitable quality cable is used. Each unit in the chain is locally powered from 220/230/240V 50Hz ac supplies.

 

Nine-digits are provided, arranged for IRIG-style 'Time of year' display, as:
DAY-OF-YEAR, HOUR, MINUTE, SECOND.
A digit-select button allows the display to be reconfigured to show only:
7 digits -- DAY-OF-YEAR, HOUR, MINUTE.
6 digits -- HOUR, MINUTE, SECOND.
4 digits -- HOUR, MINUTE.

In addition, a separate indicator shows when the source is in an 'alarm' state, for example during loss of GPS signals, even if valid data is still being received by the 1405.

The unit will continue to count time when the incoming data is lost, using an internal Quartz oscillator as a timebase. The display will revert to showing the incoming data as soon as valid new frames are received.

TYPE 420/440 DISPLAY UNIT AND CLOCK

These displays are ruggedly engineered with moisture, dust and vibration protection far superior to most competing products. Attention to the visual quality and styling of the displays enhances any installation.

The use of a UV hardened, Anti-Glare coated polycarbonate lens avoids scratching and blurring whilst giving the display a solid, robust shield to the tough industrial world.

Stainless steel and UPVC parts resist discolouration and degradation in corrosive atmospheres, and ensure that the sealing will be maintained for many years.

STANDARD FEATURES
    Panel, Wall or Suspension mounting.
    Case colour black.
    P65 sealing.
    Adjustable brightness setting.
    High impact case.
    4mm. thick high impact polycarbonate lens.
    High reliability LED technology.
    Universal power range 95 - 265 VAC.
    Digit test sequence at switch-on.
    Serial data input allows daisychaining.

OPTIONS
    Daylight viewing brightness displays.
