Hourly Bell
------------
The Hourly Bell strikes a chime every 15 minutes, and chimes out the hours every hour. You can switch on/off the chimes, and adjust the time zone to suit you.
Or you can set it to toll or peal continuously. (Peal mode optionally allows the bell to swing while playing).
The bell looks much better in a tower. A free (modable) tower is supplied if you do not have a suitable site already.
Instructions:
--------------
