During night-time hours, atmospheric disturbances are typically less severe and radio signal
reception may improve. A single daily reception is sufficient enough to keep the clock accuracy
within 1 second.
•
Make sure the unit is positioned at 8 feet (2 meters) distance from any interference source such
as a TV, computer monitor, microwave, etc.
•
Within concrete wall rooms such as basements or office buildings, the received signal may be
weakened. Always place the Projection Clock near the window for better reception.
Once the atomic time signal is received, the date and time will be set automatically, and the
icon
will appear.
After the clock is set manually, place the main unit by the window for the better reception. The atomic
clock receiver is programmed that it will continue to search for the atomic time signal daily for every
hour between 1:00 am and 4:30 am.
Once the time signal has been successfully received, the time and date will be updated automatically.
To enable or disable the atomic time receiver:
•
Press and hold
UP
- if atomic time reception is activated, a triangular tower icon will start
flashing next to the clock icon. If reception is disabled, the triangular tower icon will disappear.

TEMPERATURE AND HUMIDITY MODE
The weather station supports up to 3 remote thermo hygrometers corresponding to a separate channel
of the temperature and relative humidity display. The temperature can be displayed in Celsius (ºC) or
Fahrenheit (ºF).
The main unit carries the temperature and humidity sensor and uses this indoors data to calculate an
indoors comfort level - Wet, Comfort or Dry.
A temperature alert function is available for each channel. It can be programmed to sound if the
channel temperature exceeds or falls below the pre-set upper and lower limit.
NOTE:
The temperature alerts have a 0.5 ºC deviation to prevent them from sounding due to small
temperature fluctuations that are close to the set alert value. This means that after the
temperature reaches the alert temperature, it will have to fall below the alert temperature plus
the deviation (0.5°C) to activate the alert.

RAIN MODE
The main unit records the total amount of the rainfall for the last hour, 24 hours, past day, past week
and the past month. The rainfall can be displayed in mm or inches.
There is a daily rainfall alert that can be programmed in the unit if the daily rainfall exceeds a
pre-programmed limit.

WIND MODE
The wind direction is shown by an animated compass display. Its angle can be displayed as compass
points (i.e. NW) or in bearings starting from north (i.e. 22.5º).
The upper left section of the wind mode can be programmed to display either a temperature at the
place of anemometer or the temperature adjusted to the wind chill factor.
The lower left section of the wind mode indicates the average wind speed for the past 10 minutes, as
well as gust, wind speed alert and gust alert information. It can also show records of the maximum
wind speed and wind gust collected during the day.
The wind speed and gust alert functions can be programmed to alert you if the wind speed or gust
exceeds a pre-configured limit. The wind speed can be displayed in km/h, mph, m/s or knots.
NOTE:
The wind speed alert has a 5 mph deviation and the wind gust speed alert has a 7 mph
deviation. It is set to prevent the alerts from sounding all the time due to small fluctuations close
to the alert value. This means that after the wind speed reaches the alert value, it will have to fall
below the alert value plus deviation to activate the alert.

UP
or
DOWN
until the
icon on the display starts flashing.
