|  The ES-188 is designed to simplify locking local facilities to external time sources when a slight time offset is required. Broadcast facilities place a high priority on the ability to continuously output a clean signal while switching between a variety o  ESE-NTP Referenced Master Clock/Time Code Generator El Segundo, CA – ESE announces the ES-188, an NTP (Network Time Protocol) referenced Master Clock and Time Code Generator. The ES-188 is designed to simplify locking local facilities to external time sources when a slight time offset is required. Broadcast facilities place a high priority on the ability to continuously output a clean signal while switching between a variety of internal and external sources. While it might be expected that synchronizing internal clocks to an external source would resolve the issue, synchronization is only a partial solution. Due to a variety of system-based delays, simply synchronizing clocks is not enough. The ES-188 provides users the ability to offset local clocks from an NTP Time Server so that local events can occur at precisely the correct time. The ES-188 is a 1RU black anodized unit that displays nine digits (Day of Year, Hour, Minute & Second) of time as received via a user selected NTP server. Several types of time code (ESE-TC89, ESE-TC90, USB, RS232C/ASCII, SMPTE/EBU and IRIG-B), as well as a 1PPS signal are generated by the ES-188 and output on the rear panel. These outputs allow the ES-188 to easily interface with new or existing computers, automation systems and third-party clock systems. The ES-188 features rugged construction, automatic correction for Daylight Savings Time and 4-hour battery back-up. Options include ASCII “NPR” Time Code Output, Relay Contact Closure, 220 VAC, 12-35 VDC power input and UL approved power supply. Software is also supplied with the ES-188 which permits the user to continuously update a computer’s Windows® clock to the time available on the USB port. Regardless of a facility’s time sync challenges, ESE’s ES-188 offers a full range of features and options to resolve them once and for all. The ES-188 is now available and ready to ship. |
