1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Purpose
The clocks give time reference to the flight crew and other airplane systems.
General
This is the data that the clock shows:
These units use the clock time and date for internal timing functions.
NOTE: The flight management computer (FMC) does not use the clock data if
the FMC is programmed to use the global positioning system (GPS).

3. INTERFACES
Power
The clocks get power from the 28v dc hot battery bus through the CLOCK
circuit breaker. 28v dc through the CLOCK DISPLAY circuit breaker supplies
power to the clocks to let the clocks show date and time data. Each clock gets
5v ac from master dim and test for its internal instrument lights.
Digital Input
The multi-mode receiver (MMR) sends global positioning system time and date
to the captain and first officer clocks.
Digital Output
The captain clock sends date and time data to the FMC 1, the FDAU, and the
voice recorder on an ARINC 429 data bus. The first officer clock sends date
and time to the FMC 2.

4. CLOCK
The elapsed time resets to 0 when the button is held down for two seconds
Time/Date Pushbutton
When UTC is displayed, pressing the Time/Date pushbutton selects the UTC
date. Pressing a second time displays MAN time and pressing it again selects
MAN date. The UTC time and date are shown when the button is pressed a
fourth time.
In the MAN position, clock time and date come from the clock. In the UTC
(universal time coordinated) position, clock time and date come from the
global positioning system.

5. DATE/TIME SELECTION
Date/Time Selection
Push the time/date pushbutton to show these modes, in this order:
- UTC time
- UTC date
- MAN time
- MAN date
When a date shows, the day/month and the year show alternatively for one
second each.

6. TIME SET
General
To set the time, push the time/date pushbutton until you see MAN time. If
no manual time has previously been set, the UTC time shows for the manual
time.
Use the SET control knob to set the time. Push the SET control knob and the
hours flash. Rotate the knob to adjust the hours. Push the SET control knob
again and the minutes flash. Rotate the knob to adjust the minutes. Push the
SET control knob again to run the time.

7. DATE SET
General
To set the date, push the time/date pushbutton until you see MAN date.
Push the SET control knob once and the day flashes. Rotate the knob to select
the day. Push the knob again and the month flashes. Rotate the knob to select
the month. Push the knob again and the year flashes. Rotate the knob to
select the year. Push the knob again and the manual date displays.
NOTE: If a delay of one minute or more is experienced when setting the time
or date, the clock returns to the previous time/date setting.

8. ELAPSED TIME
General
Use the ET pushbutton to control the elapsed time function.
Push the ET button once to start the elapsed time cycle. Push it again to hold
the elapsed time. Push it a third time continues elapsed time. Holding the ET
button for two seconds resets the elapsed time to 0.
The ET and RUN or HLD symbols are display below the elapsed time display.

9. CHRONOGRAPH FUNCTION
General
The minutes show on the lower display. The sweep second hand indicates the
seconds. The chronograph function does not calculate hours.
When the chronograph time shows, the clock continues to update the elapsed
time function internally.
Use the chronograph control switch on the clock to start, stop, and reset the
chronograph.

Inputs
The clock gets 28v dc for power and clock displays.
The microprocessor senses the inputs from all the bezel controls.
The bezel light sensor senses the ambient light in the flight compartment and
sends the data to the microprocessor.
The global positioning system (GPS) sends time and date information to the
clock.
Power
Power for the operation of the clock and to keep the time base comes from
the battery bus. When the battery bus is not available for more than 200ms,
the clock uses hot battery bus power. The hot battery bus power keeps the
time base but does not supply power for the display or output of clock data.
This lets the clock time base continue operation when power is not available
from the battery bus.
ARINC 429 clock data goes to the FDAU, the FMC and the voice recorder.
