A clock is considered atomic if it has an accuracy of one second in
a million years. Consumer clocks are considered atomic if they
attain this accuracy by receiving a signal from an atomic clock. In
North America, the National Institute of Standards and
Technologies operates an atomic clock in Colorado which
transmits the time codes via the radio station WWVB. The signal is
transmitted in a very low frequency (60,000 Hz). The Acurite clock
you have purchased includes a built-in receiver which picks up the
signal from the WWVB station. NOTE: Due to solar radiation in the
atmosphere, the atomic clock signal is weak during the day. Most
synchronization with the WWVB atomic clock signal happens at
night when there is less interference.
About the Atomic Clock
PLEASE DISPOSE OF OLD OR DEFECTIVE BATTERIES IN AN ENVIRONMENTALLY
SAFE WAY AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH YOUR LOCAL LAWS AND REGULATIONS.
BATTERY SAFETY: Follow the polarity (+/-) diagram in the battery compartment. Promptly
remove dead batteries from the device. Dispose of used batteries properly. Only batteries
of the same or equivalent type as recommended are to be used. DO NOT incinerate used batteries.
DO NOT dispose of batteries in fire, as batteries may explode or leak. DO NOT mix old and new
batteries or types of batteries (alkaline/standard). DO NOT use rechargeable batteries. DO NOT
recharge non-rechargeable batteries. DO NOT short-circuit the supply terminals.
ALWAYS USE PROPER TOOLS AND MOUNT/PLACE SENSORS IN AREAS THAT WILL BE
SAFE TO YOURSELF AND OTHERS. SEEK PROFESSIONAL ASSISTANCE IN
MOUNTING/PLACING THE WIRELESS SENSORS AND FOLLOW YOUR LOCAL LAWS AND
REGULATIONS WHEN CHOOSING A MOUNTING/PLACEMENT LOCATION FOR THE
WIRELESS SENSORS
