The synchronization to an external time source is enabled by something
called a CLO card in the timer. We had this same issue. Bought the timer
and it kept the machine synched to the timer quite nicely. Except the timer
is really rotten at keeping time itself. Once we got the CLO card installed
and synching, it works very well.
