The 1285T is a multifunction time-of-day display that can act as a slave to a master clock system or as a self-contained, presettable clock.

Sixty bright rectangular LEDs are mounted in a circular arrangement simulating an analog second hand. Twelve individual round LEDs indicate the hour. In addition, the hours, minutes and seconds are displayed in digital format.

As a slave display, the unit will read SMPTE/EBU/DQS-B6/NTP time code. The user can program time zone offsets from the incoming code.

As a standalone clock, it can be programmed to operate in either 12 or 24 hour mode. Three unobtrusive front panel push-buttons allow presetting and accurate synchronization to a standard time source.
