Introducing our DC-257ALN-DATE-TIME-STAINLESS Webpage Configuration Clean Room Clock\u2014designed specifically for precision environments where accurate, synchronized time and date visibility is essential. This standard configuration is built to deliver reliable, real-time information across clean room facilities, helping teams stay aligned with critical processes and compliance requirements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At its core, this unit is engineered to display both the current time of day and the date, alternating seamlessly between the two every three seconds. This ensures that operators and personnel can quickly reference both pieces of information without needing to interact with the device. Whether installed in a pharmaceutical clean room, laboratory, or controlled production space, the display provides clear, consistent visibility at a distance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The system operates through a simple yet effective setup. The user powers the unit using a Type-F grounded power cord and connects it to their network via an Ethernet cable. Once connected, the device retrieves accurate time data directly from a configured web interface. This connection allows the clock to synchronize with an NTP server, ensuring that the displayed time remains precise and up to date.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Through the integrated web page interface, users gain full control over configuration settings. This includes adjusting the time format, selecting the appropriate time zone, and managing network credentials. For example, switching from a 12-hour format to a 24-hour format is done with a simple configuration change, instantly updating the display. Likewise, users can select from a wide range of global time zones, allowing the unit to adapt to different operational locations with ease.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Key features and capabilities include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Alternating display of current time and date every three seconds<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Synchronization with NTP servers for accurate, real-time data<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Web-based configuration interface for easy setup and adjustments<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Selectable 12-hour or 24-hour time format<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Configurable time zones for global deployment<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>User-defined username and password for secure access<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>DHCP or static IP addressing options for network flexibility<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>From a usability standpoint, the setup process is straightforward. When first powered on without a network connection, the unit defaults to a baseline display, showing zeros for time and a default date. Once the Ethernet connection is established, the clock automatically updates to reflect the correct time and date from the configured source. This ensures a smooth transition from initial setup to full operation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The hardware design reflects the demands of clean room environments. The unit features a 316L stainless steel, IP66-rated enclosure, offering durability and protection against contaminants. An optional black powder-coated aluminum enclosure is also available for alternative aesthetic or environmental requirements. The display itself measures 2.3 inches and is clearly visible from distances up to 120 feet, making it suitable for larger rooms or distributed viewing points.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Additional hardware specifications include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Seven-digit display for time and date information<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Atomic time synchronization for hours, minutes, and seconds<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Desktop mounting design for stable placement on work surfaces<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Optional power configurations, including grounded three-prong connections<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The DC-257ALN-DATE-TIME-STAINLESS Clean Room Clock brings together robust hardware and intuitive web-based controls to create a reliable timekeeping solution. By combining accurate synchronization, flexible configuration, and a durable enclosure, it meets the operational needs of environments where precision and clarity are non-negotiable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>See product: <a href=\"https:\/\/dc-digital.com\/store\/DC-257ALN-Date-Time-POE-Stainless-Network-NTP-Date-and-Time-of-Day-HH-MM-SS-Cleanroom-Clock-Web-Page-Configurable-and-Status-2-3%20Inch-7-Alphanumeric-Digits-POE-Powered-Atomic-316L-Flush-Mount-Stainless-IP-66-Desk-Mount-Enclosure.html\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/dc-digital.com\/store\/DC-257ALN-Date-Time-POE-Stainless-Network-NTP-Date-and-Time-of-Day-HH-MM-SS-Cleanroom-Clock-Web-Page-Configurable-and-Status-2-3%20Inch-7-Alphanumeric-Digits-POE-Powered-Atomic-316L-Flush-Mount-Stainless-IP-66-Desk-Mount-Enclosure.html\">DC-257ALN-Date-Time-POE-Stainless<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Watch tutorial video on <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/P87iLZPOI5A\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/P87iLZPOI5A\">YouTube<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Visit <a href=\"https:\/\/dc-digital.com\/store\/index.php\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/dc-digital.com\/store\/index.php\">DC-Digital website<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/dc-digital.com\/store\/index.php\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/dc-digital.com\/store\/index.php\">Contact us<\/a> to ask about our customized products! <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Prinses Maxima Centrum reached out to DC-Digital for a method of displaying the time of day via their own time zone.
