DESCRIPTION:

The 6850 solid-state signal generator provides power

line carrier current capabilities for electronic clock 6850-9003/2850-9004
systems and control applications. When the signal SIGNAL GENERATOR
generators are combined with Simplex Time Control
Centers, existing AC power distribution systems can be
utilized to transmit control and synchronization
information to clock, signalling and relay control SPECIFICATIONS:
