When the batteries are first installed, the unit will automatically
search for a radio signal.
When in search mode, the antenna icon [
] will blink. This
process takes between two (2) and ten (10) minutes. After initial
search, short periodic reception-signal scans will commence several
times a day.
When the RM962A is new and initially set up, reception of the U.S.
Atomic clock signal can take up to 72 hours.
The antenna icon indicates the quality of reception.
When the reception is complete, the radio-reception signal will
stop blinking.
Interference
Reception can be affected by a number of factors. For best reception,
place the device away from metal objects and electrical appliances.
Note: Interference from sources such as TV sets can affect
the signal. If, after batteries have been inserted for ten
minutes, the signal is not received, then set the time manually
(see section: How To Set The Calendar Clock Manually).
To deactivate the auto-reception of RF signal, press and hold the
ZONE button for 2 seconds. The antenna icon will disappear to
show this deactivation.
To activate the auto-reception again, press and hold the [
]
button for 2 seconds again and the antenna icon will re-appear.
