				12 hour clock with synchro output	The transmitting device consists basically of a standard Camerer Cuss panel mounted clock incorporating a Smiths Industries synchro, which is driven by the clock mechanism, to provide a time source independent of the electrical system of the aircraft. It provides an accurate time-base for all data being recorded, the time-related transmission from the clock unit being logged on a magnetic tape or wire along with all other required data. In the Trident, for example, data from the aircraft instruments and the time-related signal are all recorded inside the flight recorder. The clock is a standard 2in panel mounting model and the extension of the synchro behind the panel is less than 3in. The clock can be supplied with a 12- or 24-hour dial.

NL75100hm240866				24 hour clock with synchro output	See above
					In addition to the GMT time-of-flight clock, incorporating a Moore, Reed time digitiser, produced for BOAC's EFDAS-equipped aircraft, Camerer Cuss have developed a new a.c. data transmitting device for the Plessey PV726A system installed in BEA's new aircraft. Based on a standard 2in panel-mounting clock and incorporating a Smiths Industries Type 08 synchro, the device provides an accurate time base for recorded data. Operation is independent of the aircraft electrical system. (FLIGHT International, 3 Ju\y 1969)
