Overview

gle/TCD-100 is available in three variants that support different kinds of time source. This unit decodes and displays the input time as Hours, Minutes and Seconds on a six digits LED display as HH : MM : SS.
Its intensity is user adjustable via a front panel selector switch.
In the absence of an applied time source input it shows the internal clock and the displayed colons flash at 1Hz rate.
