WALL MOUNTING

 

1)  Using a straight edge, horizontally space at 3-15/16 of an inch (100 

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. 

 

POSITIONING THE OUTDOOR TEMPERATURE TRANSMITTER 

To achieve a true temperature reading, avoid mounting where direct sunlight can reach the 
outdoor temperature transmitter. It is recommended to mount the outdoor temperature 
transmitter on a North-facing wall or in any well-shaded area. The maximum transmitting 
range is 

330 feet

 obstacles such as walls, concrete, and large metal objects can reduce the 

range. 

 

Place both units in their desired location, and wait approximately 15 minutes before 
permanently mounting to ensure that there is proper reception. The outdoor temperature 
transmitter is not waterproof and should not be placed where it will be directly in the rain. 

 

The outdoor temperature transmitter can be mounted in two ways: 

 

with the use of screws, or  

 

using the adhesive tape.

 

 

 

MOUNTING WITH SCREWS 

 

1) 

Remove the mounting bracket from the outdoor 
temperature transmitter.
