Audix Broadcast's TICK-TOCK system provides a highly accurate master clock unit which outputs the converted time information and transmits it to a series of individual clocks through a single two core cable, all the specialised clocks then automatically synchronise themselves to this data and display accurate time.
All clocks are powered down the same cable and do not under normal circumstances require any maintenance. Clock sizes and types "Analogue or Digital" can be chosen to suit the requirements from the wide selection of designs.
The system's time reference is taken from the highly accurate GPS network, local time can be programmed into the system by the masters front panel controls.
Audix Broadcast is a specialist manufacturing based company working in audio products for the radio and television industry, the systems options are at present limited to those required in our industry however the computer interface, control inputs and outputs and battery backup maybe applicable to other commercial areas, eg shopping centres, hospitals, local councils, banks and schools, where highly accurate time display-information is needed.
