INITIAL STARTUP
After powering on, the digital clock will be fully displayed and then enter the initial startup mode. The default time is 12:00
AM and the date is 1-1-2005. At the same time wherever the clock hands may be, the hands will automatically synchronize
with the default time of 12:00 AM. After synchronization, the clock will begin to look for the WWVB radio signal.
The digital clock will start to search for the WWVB signal after synchronization.
In optimal conditions, the correct time can be displayed within 3 to 10 minutes.
The flashing icon
indicates that your SkyScan clock is searching. While the clock is searching for the WWVB
signal, the other buttons do not function; Press the “Set/Wave” button to stop reception manually.
The “WAVE OK” icon will display when the WWVB signal is received successfully.
