2-Wire System Description• Starts with the SMA Series Master Clock sending data to a Converter Box

• Converter Box acts as both a power supply and an amplifier of the data signal so it can send both the 24VDC and the data on the same pair of wires to the secondary clocks in the field

• The system works on only two wires and provides correction to the clocks as often as once per second, ensuring superior accuracy

• The system is capable of supporting both analog and digital 24 volt clocks which can be used together in the same system

How it Works

How it Works

Converter Box Calculator• One converter box can power many secondary clocks, however, this will be determined by the type

and size of the clock – analog or digital, the wire gauge (thickness) used for installation, and the distance between the converter box and the last clock in the run.

• In order to assist the installer in calculating the amount of converter boxes for a project, Sapling has created a Converter Box Calculator. This calculator is an Excel file and by filling in all the necessary information, the installer will be able to determine how many converter boxes will be needed for the project.
