TCS-1 Master Clock
Professional navigation has particular requirements when it comes to automated clock systems. The Mühle TCS-1 is exactly tailored to meet these requirements, as it can not only be easily integrated into the existing on-board Ethernet, but can also be configured via WLAN. Thus it combines up-to-date technologies that make life on board that little bit easier. Mühle clock systems are not only suitable for ships, but also for airports and business premises.
The TCS-1 (Time Control System) is the control center of automated clock systems and supplies the time protocol for an unlimited number of additional clocks and all integrated automization systems. It therefore enables, for example, quick and automatic time zone conversion or the timesaving changeover from summertime to wintertime.
The entire clock system can be controlled from a central location. Normally settings are adjusted using the bright and dimmable touch screen of the TCS-1, which is also clearly readable, even in direct sunlight.
The TCS-1 can display up to three times simultaneously: Universal Time Coordinated and Local Time on the analogue display and a further time zone (at sea, for example, the home location time or the destination port time) on the digital display. The intelligent 24-hour display of the TCS-1 has been particularly well thought out, with the analogue displays for the Universal Time Coordinated and the Local Time designed with changing hour markers. In the morning the hour markers 1 to 12 are displayed and from midday to midnight the hour markers 13 to 24 are displayed. This means that for any of the three time zones, you can tell whether it's night or day at first glance.
