When Fast Signs of Syracuse needed a reliable outdoor display to show both the time of day and the current temperature, they chose the DC-150-TT-GPS Outdoor Temperature Clock from DC-Digital. The goal was straightforward: provide a clear, accurate display that could be easily read by people passing by the location. The DC-150-TT-GPS delivered exactly that.

Designed to Clearly Display Time and Temperature

The primary function of the DC-150-TT-GPS is to present accurate time and outdoor temperature in one easy-to-read display. The unit features 15-inch tall LED digits using bright white LEDs, making the numbers highly visible even in daylight conditions. With a viewing distance of up to 750 feet, the display allows drivers, pedestrians, and customers to quickly check both the time and temperature from far away.

For Fast Signs of Syracuse, this visibility was essential. The bright white LED display ensures that the time of day and current temperature are always clearly communicated to anyone passing by.

GPS-Controlled Atomic Time Accuracy

To ensure the time is always correct, the clock uses a GPS-controlled atomic time system. A compact GPS receiver connects to the unit and synchronizes the display with satellite signals that follow the NIST-regulated world time standard. This provides incredibly precise timekeeping, accurate to within one second every 15 billion years.

Once installed, the clock automatically maintains the correct time without the need for manual adjustments. Users can also configure settings such as:

• Time zones (default includes the four continental U.S. time zones)
• 12-hour or 24-hour time format
• Daylight savings time enable or disable

These options ensure the display always shows the correct time for the installation location.

Accurate Outdoor Temperature Monitoring

Alongside the time display, the DC-150-TT-GPS continuously measures outdoor temperature using an external probe. The probe is designed for outdoor conditions and provides readings across a wide range:

• -50°C (-58°F) to +90°C (+194°F)
• Accuracy of ±0.5°C

The display can be configured to show temperature in Fahrenheit or Celsius, allowing businesses to present temperature information in the format that best suits their audience.

Built for Outdoor Reliability

Because the display is designed for outdoor installations, durability is a key feature. The clock is housed in an IP-66 rated aluminum enclosure, meaning it is fully protected against rain and wet environments. The black powder-coated finish provides additional durability while resisting fingerprints and wear.

The unit measures 48 inches wide, 18.75 inches tall, and 3.25 inches deep, and mounts securely using aluminum C-channel rails. Power is supplied through a junction box supporting 100–240VAC, allowing installation in a wide range of locations.

Meeting the Customer’s Goal

For Fast Signs of Syracuse, the objective was simple: install a display that clearly shows the time of day and current outdoor temperature. The DC-150-TT-GPS accomplishes this with high-visibility white LED digits, atomic time accuracy, and reliable temperature monitoring.

By combining these features into a rugged outdoor design, the clock provides a dependable way to share important information with the public—making it a practical and effective solution for businesses that want to display both time and temperature outdoors.
