Before Installation - Network Monitor Software

The clock is provided with a Network Monitoring Software, allowing the user to view, program, and
monitor the clocks (displays). The Network Monitoring Software will be used once the clock(s) has
been powered and connected to the network. Therefore, at this stage, the software should be ready
and available, and will require downloading the software on a computer.

In addition to the CD, the Network Monitoring Software is also available to be downloaded from our
website as per the below link. Please also note that the Network Monitoring Software is available
in two different versions: One version is meant for the hard-wired network clocks, while the second
version is meant for the Wi-Fi network clocks. Make sure that you download the correct software
version depending on the type of clock you have.

https://sapling-inc.com/software/

Instructions for downloading and installing the Network Monitoring Software:


1. Create a folder on your computer called Network Monitor
2. If you have the Network Monitor on a CD:
a. Load the CD into your computer’s CD Drive
b. Open the file on the CD and select the file ending in extension “.exe”
c. Copy the file to your Network Monitor folder.
3. If you downloaded the Network Monitor from our website: https://sapling-inc.com/software/
a. Locate the Network Monitor file in your computer’s Downloads folder.
b. Select the file and copy all of its contents to your Network Monitor folder.
4. If you received the Network Monitor as an email attachment, refer to your email provider’s
instructions for downloading email attachments.
5. In order to use the Network Monitoring Software, port 1777 must be open in the facility’s firewall.
6. If your computer has a security software
in use, please make sure that it is not
blocking the network monitoring
software (if it is, you need to allow it
to run by having it “whitelisted” on your
computer).
7. Once the software is running on your

Before Installation - DHCP

The IP-PoE clock can be set to DHCP or Static IP address.

The clock is shipped in DHCP mode as default. This means that once the clock is connected to the network
it is assigned the next available IP address by a DHCP server. It is user changeable, meaning that the
clock can be set with a static IP address and that these settings can be changed in the clock built-in web
interface (as explained in this manual).

If you wish to be able to access the web interface from a computer, Port 80 must be open.

If you wish to access your clock using a known, unchanging Static IP address, see the next page.

If a user wishes to access the web interface while the clock is in DHCP mode, use the Network Monitoring
Software and double click on the clock.

Before Installation - Static IP

The IP-PoE clock can be set to DHCP or Static IP address.


The clock is shipped in DHCP mode as default. This means that once the clock is connected to the
network it is assigned the next available IP address by a DHCP server. It is user changeable, meaning
that the clock can be set with a static IP address and changing these settings in the clock built-in web
interface (as explained in this manual).
For setting your IP-PoE clock to a static IP address, there are two options for doing so.
Option 1: If the facility where clock(s) will be installed into has a DHCP server, please follow these steps:
1. Connect and power the clock to the network via a network cable. (Note: in order to have clock be
powered, network cable must be receiving power through a PoE Switch or PoE Injector)
2. Once clock is powered, double click on the clock when using the Network Clock Monitoring
Software.
3. Go onto a web browser that is connected to the same LAN (Local Area Network) as the clock and type
the IP address of the clock into the address bar.
4. This should bring you to the web interface of the clock and you will be prompted to log in.
The default password is 6063.
5. Once logged in, select “Network Settings” on the top of the page. Refer to image A shown below.
6. In “Network Settings” note the DHCP option. Toggle DHCP from “ON” to “OFF”. This will make the
current IP address of the clock static. Refer to image A shown below.
7. Enter the Gateway IP Address, Subnet Mask, DNS Router, and Static IP Address as provided by your
network administrator.
8. After DHCP is switched to off, power cycle the clock by unplugging the network cable from the
clock’s RJ-45 receptacle, waiting 10 seconds, and then plugging it back in.

Before Installation - Static IP (ctd.)

Option 2: Another way to set the clock with a designated static IP address without the use of a DHCP
server would be by using crossover cable.
1. Power the clock while holding down both buttons on the back of the clock (on top of the clock
movement). You should now be able to access the clock through a web browser at IP address
192.168.0.123.
2. Use a crossover cable to attach the clock to a PoE injector, and the injector to your computer.
a. If you are connecting from the clock to the computer using a PoE switch, the injector is not
needed.
3. Access the web interface using the default password 6063, then click on the “Network Settings” tab.
Refer to image A shown in the previous page.
4. Confirm that DHCP is set to OFF. Refer to image A shown in the previous page.
5. Enter the following parameters provided by your network administrator: Gateway IP Address, Subnet
Mask, DNS Router, and the designated Static IP Address of the clock. After entering these settings,
click on the “Submit” button.
6. Write the Clock Number, IP Address, MAC Address, and intended installation location in your personal
record.
7. Click the “Submit” button.
8. Exit the Web interface.
9. Detach the data cable.
10. Reattach the data cable and log in to the clock by using the new Static IP.

Before Installation - Clock Setup - Network Servers

Time Input – From an In-House NTP Time Server or from a Master Clock
If the facility has their own in-house NTP Time Server or a master clock capable of providing time data to
the IP clocks, the IP clocks should be programmed accordingly. To set the clocks to receive the time data
from the in-house time source, please follow the below steps:
• Set the in-house NTP Time Server or master clock (capable of providing time data to the IP clocks) with a
static IP address.
• Once the IP address of the in-house time source has been identified, program it in the clock “1st Server
Address” text box in the “Network Servers” tab of the clock built-in web interface.
• Make sure to click the circle next to the “1st Server Address” text box, which will command the clock to
take time data from this selected time source.
• Make sure that the option “Rotate Servers” is not selected, which commands the clock to receive time
data from the “1st Server Address” as long as it is active.
• Regardless of what server or master clock you are using as a time source, all IP clocks must still be set
with the UTC/GMT Offset and DST separately, as explained in this manual.
• If you only want the clocks to receive time data from the in-house NTP time server or from the in-house
master clock, you can delete all other pre-loaded server addresses (2nd Server Address – 10th Server
Address). If you leave these third-party time servers listed, they can be used as a backup to the in-house
NTP time server, as long as the clocks can access the internet.

Time Input – From two In-House NTP Time Servers or from two Master Clocks
• Set the in-house NTP Time Servers or master clocks (capable of providing time data to the IP clocks) with
a static IP address.
• Once the IP addresses of the in-house time sources have been identified, program these two static IP
addresses into the clock’s “1st Server Address” and “2nd Server Address” text boxes in the “Network
Servers” tab of the clock’s built-in web interface.
• Delete all other Server Addresses that came pre-programmed in the clock and make sure to leave only
the two IP addresses of the in-house time sources that you have programmed into the clock.
• Make sure that the option “Rotate Servers” is selected, which commands the clock to rotate between
the two time sources.
• Regardless of what server or master clock you are using as a time source, all IP clocks must still be set
with the UTC/GMT Offset and DST separately, as explained in this manual.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size utility/gang box is needed?


A standard single gang box is required for wall mounting a locally powered version of the clock.
However, if you are installing a locally powered double mount clock, then a standard double gang
box is required.
How do IP clocks get their time?
IP clocks independently acquire time from a Network Time Protocol (NTP) server. Many public NTP servers
are maintained by government and research institutions, and they are accessible over the Internet. It is
also possible to set up an in-house NTP server for a network that is not connected to the Internet.
If a change is made on the web interface, does it affect one IP clock or all of them?
The web interface allows the user to adjust settings for only one IP clock.
If a user wishes to apply the changes from one web interface to all clocks on the system, they may do so
through the Network Monitor program.
How many power injectors will I need if I am installing the clocks using Power over
Ethernet (PoE)?
Each clock will need an injector, however there are products that exist, such as PoE switches, which
provide multiple PoE ports.
What type of cable is used for PoE?
PoE is typically carried through a CAT5, CAT5e, or CAT6 patch cable.
May I use any NTP/SNTP server for downloading time?
Yes. Any server that sends out Network Time Protocol can be used.
Can I manually set the time on the SAP?
There is no physical input on the clock for manually setting time and attempting to open the front crystal
will void the warranty.
Instead, a user can modify settings on the Web Interface to adjust the time displayed on an individual IP
clock. A combination of the GMT Offset and Bias Seconds options can be adjusted to set the clock to the
user’s preferred time.
What is the default password for the web interface?
The default user password is 1111. The default technician password is 6063.

Troubleshooting
The clock is not powering up. What should I do?
If you are using a power injector or PoE switch, confirm that the injector or switch is powered. If you can
confirm that the injector is powered, but the clock is still not powering up, confirm that the cable from the
master clock or network router has been inserted into the INPUT socket, and that the cable leading to the
SAP has been inserted into the OUTPUT socket.
The clock is powered, but not running. What should I do?
Detach the clock from the mounting and determine if the gearbox pin has been removed from the
movement. If the pin was not removed during installation, power down the clock, remove the pin, then
power up the clock again.
I cannot connect to the web interface. What should I do?
Use a cross-over cable to confirm that you are trying to access the correct IP address. If you were using
the correct IP address, reexamine your network firewall for settings that could prevent you from
accessing the clock.
The clock is not showing the right time. What should I do?
Attempt the following corrections in numerical order until the clock properly synchronizes:
1. Confirm that the clock is on the network by finding it with your Network Monitor.
2. Confirm that the clock is able to communicate over your network. Be mindful of passwords and
firewalls, and be sure that Port 123 is open if you are getting NTP time via the Internet.
3. On the web interface, click on the tab ‘Clock Status’ and press the ‘Resync NTP Now’ button.
4. On the web interface, click on the tab ‘Clock Settings’ and review the text box labeled “GMT Offset”.
Confirm that the number matches your time zone. If it does not, revise the number, press submit, and
then press the “Resync NTP Now” button on the ‘Clock Status’ page.
5. On the web interface, click on the tab ‘Network Servers’, confirm that the ‘Rotate Servers’ box is
selected, then press submit. Return to the ‘Clock Status’ page and press the “Resync NTP Now” button.
Buttons
6. If the problem persists, contact technical support.
Is there a way to reset the clock to its manufacturer
default settings?
