REMOTE TEMPERATURE TRANSMITTER 
 

1)

 

Remove the battery cover.  Place your thumb over 
the two air-vent slots on the face of the Remote 
Temperature Transmitter, push down gently, and 
slide battery cover down and off.  Observing the 
correct polarity, install 2 AAA batteries.  The 
batteries will fit tightly (to avoid start-up problems make sure that they do 
not spring free during installation).

 

2)

 

Replace the battery cover. 

 

B)

 

TEMPERATURE CLOCK

 

 

1)

 

Remove the battery cover, 
located on the backside of the 
unit and directly below the 
function buttons.

 

2)

 

Observe the correct polarity, 
and install 2 AA batteries.

 

3)

 

Replace the battery cover. 
 

Note:

 After the batteries have 

been installed a tone will sound, 
and all the LCD’s (Liquid Crystal 
Display) will briefly light up.  The 
indoor temperature, the date as “1/ 
1”, the weekday as “MON”, and 
the remote temperature will be 
displayed (within three minutes).  
Also, the time will appear as “-:--” for approximately 1 minute.  The WWVB search 
is automatically initiated, and a tower icon appears and flashes with the time colon 
(no tower icon will appear if the WWVB is too weak to be detected, and the time 
display will remain on “-:--”). While the WWVB search is being conducted various 
numbers will appear in the time display. Within 10 minutes the Temperature Clock 
will either display the WWVB time, or discontinue the search if the time is not 
found. If the search is cancelled “-:--” will appear in the time LCD.  The 
Temperature Clock will conduct a WWVB search every hour until the first signal is 
found.  Once the WWVB time is found, a search is automatically conducted nightly 
at midnight. If the signal is found at midnight, the tower icon will remain, if not, 
another search will take place every hour (until 6:00 am) until the signal is found 
successfully. If no signal is found during this period, the tower icon will not appear 
and the clock will search again at 12:00 am the next night.

PROGRAM MODE

 

To enter the Program Mode hold down the “

SET”

 button for 2 seconds, until 

“-5EST” flashes in the Date LCD.  The Program Mode is laid out in a manner that 
allows you to program each function separately, or you can follow the instructions 
entirely to program the Temperature Clock.  Complete programming is usually done 
for the initial set-up, and will require you to skip step 1 of programming sections C

Note:
 The DST default is “On”, meaning that the WWVB will automatically 
change the time according to Daylight Saving Time in the spring and fall.  For 
areas that do not recognize DST changes (Arizona, Hawaii and parts of 
Indiana) turn the DST “OFF”.

 

1)
