INTRODUCING THE PRIMEX ECO CLOCK

The Primex Eco Clock is an environmentally friendly analog clock. Powered by four photovoltaic cells, the Primex Eco

Clock harvests energy from ambient and interior lighting as well as from indirect natural lighting to power its 72MHz

receiver and movement. Most typical office or school room environments contain enough light to fully power and

synchronize the Primex Eco Clock.

Features

lPowered by common interior lighting

lSynchronizes with Primex Wireless 72MHz transmitters

l“Intelligent” second hand stops to conserve energy in low light conditions (Model 14149 only)

lAutomatically adjusts for daylight saving time

lDurable impact resistant frame and lens

lLong-life battery backup provides power in low light conditions

l“Plug and Play” installation requires no manual setting

lClock-Lock feature for secure installation

Models

The Primex Eco Clock comes in two models:

l14149 12.5 in. (31.75cm) Eco Clock, with second hand

l14149-NS 12.5 in. (31.75cm) Eco Clock, without second hand

Light Requirements for the Primex Eco Clock

The Primex Eco Clock operates best with a minimum lighting level of 220 lux--a measure of light intensity--for a period of

eight hours per day five days per week. When installing the Primex Eco Clock, consider the intensity of light where you

would like to place the clock. As shown in Figure 1, the intensity of available light in most indoor environments varies

widely. To identify the optimal location for the clock, use a light meter before hanging the Primex Eco Clock.

NOTE: Primex Wireless offers the Lux1010-B Digital Lux Meter (Part Number 14258). To order, contact Primex

Wireless Customer Service.

Primex Eco Clock Operation

The Primex Eco Clock can be installed anywhere indoors within range of the Primex Wireless 72MHz transmitter as long as

lighting is adequate. Under adequate lighting levels (220 lux or above), the clock’s photovoltaic cells, as shown in Figure

2, collect and store light energy to power the clock. When the Primex Eco Clock is started, the radio in the clock receives a

synchronization signal and sets the time automatically. When operating under optimal lighting, the Primex Eco Clock

synchronizes time once per day, at 10:01, 2:01 or 6:01 a.m. and p.m. and optically aligns its hands, if needed, daily at

midnight. With adequate light (above 150 lux), the second hand will operate normally with single-second stepped motion

(Model 14149 only).

Energy Conservation in Low Light Conditions

Each minute, the Primex Eco Clock samples the ambient light conditions. When light is insufficient for the photovoltaic

cells to support full functionality, the clock conserves energy. When conserving energy (the second hand on Model 14149

is not moving), the receiver is only turned on to synchronize time on Sundays at 2:01 a.m., and it suspends the second

hand’s sweep at 12 (Model 14149 only). When light is inadequate at midnight (the second hand on Model 14149 is not

moving), the clock aligns its hands only on Wednesdays at midnight, regardless of light conditions.

The Primex Eco Clock uses the light energy it harvests to power its operations, storing the excess in a rechargeable battery

(Primex Eco Clocks ship with this battery fully charged). If light conditions are not adequate to charge the rechargeable

battery, the Primex Eco Clock switches to the CR123 backup battery. Table 2Table 2shows how light intensity affects clock

operation and backup battery life.

INSTALL PRIMEX ECO CLOCK

CAUTION:Be careful not to damage the wires on the back of the clock when hanging or removing the clock.

Installation Overview

The Primex Eco Clock comes fully assembled and sets automatically with a few easy steps.

lYou can start the Primex Eco Clock in a convenient central location such as a maintenance facility. However,

before hanging the Primex Eco Clock, verify at the clock’s final location that the clock has sufficient ambient

light and network signal strength for full operations.

lBefore starting the Primex Eco Clock, be sure that the Primex Wireless transmitter is operating properly with

adequate building coverage.

lDuring the start procedure, the Primex Eco Clock receives a signal from the Primex Wireless transmitter. Primex

Wireless transmitters with external antennas broadcast for only 27 minutes each hour, from 39 minutes before

the hour to 6 minutes after the following hour. If you have a transmitter with an external antenna, follow these

guidelines to efficiently start your Primex Eco Clocks.

lSmall quantity of Primex Eco Clocks: Start the clocks during the window in which the transmitter

is broadcasting.

lLarge quantity of Primex Eco Clocks: Power cycle (unplug and plug in) the transmitter, causing it

to broadcast continuously for 8 hours, during which time you can start the clocks.

lAllow sufficient time to complete the full start procedure without interruption.

lRead the entire start procedure before beginning and refer to Figure 3
