The Standard Engineering DSP RTC018 Real-Time Clock is wired as follows:

  • If counting to time, the crystal oscillator output (218Hz) is connected to input A. If counting to the monitor, the monitor cable from one of the scaler inputs (usually channel 1) is connected to input A.

  • The preset out output is connected to start.

  • If using the DSP QS-450 scaler, connect the busy output to the gate input on the scaler module. If using the Kinetic Systems 3610 hex scaler, connect the end output to the inhibit input of the scaler module.

  • A 1 KHz signal should be fed into a scaler input (normally channel 0).

  • The detector signal should be fed into a third scaler input (normally channel 2).
