330 feet (100 meters).  Obstacles such as walls, concrete, and large metal objects can reduce the 
range. 

 

Place both units in their desired location, and wait approximately 10 minutes before permanently 
mounting to ensure that there is proper reception.  The outdoor temperature transmitter is not 
waterproof and should not be placed anywhere it will become submerged in water or be directly in 
the rain. 

 

POSITIONING THE ATOMIC CLOCK: 

There are two possible ways to mount the atomic clock: 

 

use of the foldout table stands, or 

 wall 

mounting 

 

FOLDOUT TABLE STAND 

 

The foldout table stand legs are located on the backside, at the lower corners, just 
below the battery cover. The hinges are towards the edges of the  atomic clock, and 
the ends (with no hinge) need to be folded out towards the edge. Once the foldout 
table stands are extended, place the atomic clock in an appropriate location. 
 
 
 
 
 

WALL MOUNTING

 

1)  Using a straight edge, horizontally space at 2-3/4 of an inch (70 mm) three 

screw positions on a wall.   

2)  Install three mounting screws (not included) into a wall —leaving 

approximately 3/16 of an inch (5mm) extended from the wall.

 

3)  Place the atomic clock onto the screws, using the hanging holes on the 

backside. Gently pull the atomic clock down to lock the screws into place.    

 

Note:

 

Always ensure that the atomic clock locks onto the screws before releasing.
