They're an NTS client driving a motorized second hand and set of wheels
for minute and hour. IMHO it seems that somebody slipped up on the motor
specs/purchase. It might be amusing to use the electronics with a
better drive motor and an even more classy going train...otoh there are
other projects. The software that came with the clock should work to
set it.

I didn't know that there was such a thing as an analog IP clock.
Now it is on my "gotta have" list.

I ended up throwing all three of mine away. None worked right.
Bought
two, did an RMA for one and the new one was broken and was told to
keep it,
and they had no more stock. It felt good to get rid of the junk that
didn't work. It was a shame because they looked really nice. They
simply
did not work.

Some years ago, symmetricom sold out some analog network clocks. Last
winter, both of mine froze up and would not adjust. Being naturally
curious, I opened one up, and found the motor and wheels that drive
the
hands. Knowing that this type of motor has problems, I simply
unplugged
it and manually forced the going train and the motor on each clock to
turn in both directions(use your thumb.) After all, it was no good as
is. I guess the grease was redistributed, as both clocks now function
properly. They do have to be set using the software sort of often,
but
sure look classy :-). No wonder we got them so cheap!
