these instructions.
About the atomic clock
This atomic clock with wireless indoor/outdoor thermometer provides the WWVB radio-controlled
time, date, weekday, time zone, as well as the indoor and outdoor temperature including a memory
for the maximum and minimum temperature.
Should the device not receive WWVB radio signals due to environmental conditions, you can use the
device as a normal Quartz clock with the temperature data.
ON WWVB Radio Controlled Time
The NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology) radio station is located in Ft. Collins,
Colorado. It transmits an exact time signal continuously throughout the United States at 60 KHz
frequency. The Atomic Clock with Wireless Indoor/Outdoor Thermometer can receive this WWVB
signal through its internal antenna from up to 2,000 miles away. Due to the nature of the Earth's
ionosphere, reception can be limited during the daylight hours. The atomic clock will search for an
alternate station that derives its signal from the NIST Atomic clock in Boulder, Colorado. – For more
information, visit the NIST website: www.nist.gov.
