can cause loss of connection between the transmitter and the

•
Reorientation of the Digital Atomic Clock 90 degrees towards the outdoor transmitter
may provide better reception.

Quick Connect
1.
Bring the outdoor sensor, clock together inside, and place the units 5-10 feet apart with
nothing between them.
2.
Hold the PLUS button on the clock. The outdoor temperature area will flash.
3.

Outdoor Temperature Changes Constantly
•
You may have an additional compatible outdoor transmitter within range.
•
Occasionally a neighbor will have a compatible outdoor transmitter that is within
range.
•
During setup, the temperature may change frequently as the clock looks for the
transmitter.
Inaccurate Outdoor Temperature Reading
•
The outdoor transmitter reads the environment. When mounted in the home it will read
inside Temperature.
•
When the transmitter reads high during the day but not at night it is a
problem.
•
Side-by-side test
: Bring the outdoor transmitter in the house and place it next to the
Digital Atomic Clock for 2 hours.
•
Compare indoor and outdoor temperature. The temperatures should be within 4
degrees to be within tolerance. See the section on
accuracy
for details.
•
If the transmitter reads correctly when next to the Digital Atomic Clock then try a
different location outside.
•
Look for heat sources such as sunlight, door, or window frames, or reflected heat.
Intermittent Outdoor Temperature
•
RF (radio frequency) communication may come and go occasionally. This can be
normal in some environments (e.g., moist climates). If transmitter signal is lost, please
wait 2-4 hours for the signal to reconnect on its own.
•
Move the outdoor transmitter to a closer location.
