LATHEM TIME LAUNCHES NEW
LINE OF WIRELESS WALL CLOCK SOLUTIONS
Introducing the RC Series™
Wireless GPS Clock System
ORLANDO (March 15, 2007) – Lathem
Time Corp., one of the world’s leading designers and
manufacturers of time management products for business,
launches its RC Series™ Wireless GPS Clock System at the
National Sound and Communications Association Expo, March
15, 2007.
Lathem’s wireless wall clock system allows
schools, hospitals, manufacturing and government facilities
to wirelessly synchronize time to the exact second. Benefits
include teaching students to be punctual and minimize
disruptions due to tardiness, allowing physicians to rely on
accurate time to determine when to check patients and
administer medicine, and helping manufacturers improve
productivity and reduce unnecessary confusion due to
time related delays.
“When time matters, this system offers the
most innovative and reliable solution for wireless GPS time
synchronization,” said Jim Owen, product manager for
Lathem’s Wall Clock and Institutional Systems.
Utilizing a powerful microprocessor capable
of synchronizing thousands of wireless analog or digital
clocks in addition to signal control systems, the
RC Master™
clock is the foundation of the RC Series Wireless GPS Clock
System. The RC Master regularly updates its internal clock
from the U.S. government’s global positioning satellite
(GPS) broadcast signal. In turn, this master control clock
employs a single transmitter design to encode and transmit a
powerful, commercially approved, FCC licensed UHF radio
paging signal that accurately synchronizes the wireless
clocks to the exact second.
The RC Series Wireless Wall Clocks
incorporate the most advanced movement available on the
market, automatically adjusting for Daylight Saving Time and
power outages that can reduce operational and maintenance
costs. The clocks are available in a wide variety of easy-toinstall
models with heavy-duty steel construction or
impact-resistant ABS plastic, providing long-term quality
and durability.
Illinois Time Recorder, Lathem’s premier
dealer in the greater Chicago area, has already begun to
offer the RC Series Wireless Wall Clock System to its
customers. Patrick Neville, president of Illinois Time
Recorder, said, “The RC Series Wireless GPS Clock System is
representative of the quality solutions we’ve come to expect
from Lathem. Other wireless clock systems use low band or
short-range signals, which typically require multiple
transmitters to achieve adequate coverage, often resulting
in additional system components to eliminate ‘dead spots’.
We are excited to offer Lathem’s new wireless wall clock
system because its single transmitter system design provides
a highly reliable and scalable solution for campus-wide
coverage.”
