ESE ES-102F GPS 10ns SMPTE/EBU TC90 Timecode Generator LED Clock Time Receiver [Used]

Tested/Guaranteed • Used, Very Good Condition • Fully Working • Usually $1,705 • Outputs SMPTE/EBU, ESE, RS-232, USB Timecode

Item is used, in very good cosmetic condition - and fully working. This is a recent model so the unit will continue to provide accurate time and date until beyond 2037. No unpictured cables, accessories or documents are included. An OEM antenna is included to get you started but for optimal results you should ideally plan on using an outdoor antenna with a full view of the sky. Note that you will need the ESE control application which may be downloaded from their website (https://www.ese-web.com/ftp/MasterControlPanelv2.0.zip) to change the timezone and other parameters. The control applet allows you to set the DST rules manually for worldwide compatibility. No printed manual is included, but a copy may be downloaded here if required (https://www.prostudioconnection.net/1410/ESE_ES-102U_Manual.pdf). The photos show the actual item for sale.

The ESE ES-102F is a GPS Master Clock/Time Code Generator. The unit receives accurate time and date information from Global Positioning System satellites and displays six digits of time (Hour, Minute & Second). Simultaneously, the ES-102F generates several types of time code including SMPTE/EBU LTC, ESE-TC90/TC89 (selectable), ASCII (RS-232C & USB) and a 1PPS signal. These outputs allow the ES-102F to easily interface with new or existing computers, automation and clock systems. A 12-channel receiver is employed that is capable of tracking up to twelve satellites simultaneously, although reception of only one is required for time data to be output. ESE's ES-102F offers an accuracy of better than 10nS, and is entirely self-setting. The unit provides an internal Coin Cell for backing up the GPS receiver time.

Six yellow LED displays (.56") provide a digital display of the Hours, Minutes and Seconds data.

Two (2) One Pulse Per Second outputs and a GPS "Lock" output are also standard features.

A twelve-channel receiver is employed that is capable of tracking up to twelve satellites simultaneously, although reception of only one is required for time data to be output.

Available software permits users to continuously update a computer's Windows' clock to the time available on the USB port. Other features allow the user to select SMPTE mode (DF, NDF, EBU & Real Time), offset the Time Zone displayed and output by the ES-102F and advance or delay the time output for various synchronizing purposes.
