10 years after developing the first prototype of the mechanical clock driver, I have improved the original idea with new features. The purpose and basic function remain similar, but I have created two versions: an affordable, no-frills Basic version, and a WiFi version with advanced functionalities.
- WiFi version: allows access to clock settings and time adjustment even if the board is not physically accessible.
- Flexible power supply: the board can be powered by any inexpensive USB power supply (not included) that provides 5V, instead of a costly, bulky, and hard-to-find 24V power supply.
- The WiFi version can be powered by an external power source from 9 to 26V; in this case, the output voltage will match the input power voltage.
- Compact size: only 37x36mm for the basic version and 58x36mm for the WiFi version, with 4 easily removable screw supports (dia. 4mm) (25x36mm and 51x36mm when removing supports).
- 12V or 24V output
- Easily adjustable pulse interval
- Optional backup battery input, allowing the clock to continue running even without power (WiFi version only).
- Manual advance button and external input
- Quick advance of 60 pulses via WiFi
- Temperature-compensated quartz version with ±1 minute error per year, or basic version with ±8 minutes error per year.

(W) = configurable via WiFi
(S) = configurable with a soldered jumper
(2) = controllable with a physical button or via WiFi
IMPORTANT! Before ordering the board, follow the instructions to verify the clock’s functionality.
