MANUAL TIME SETTING  

In case the atomic clock is not able to detect the WWVB-signal (disturbances, transmitting 
distance, etc.), the time can be manually set. The clock will then work as a normal Quartz 
clock. 

 

Note

:  In 12 hours mode the time will be displayed with an additional 

PM

 for the time from 

12:00 noon until 11:59 pm. 

1. 

The hour digits will start flashing on LCD1.

+

+

 key. If the 

+

 key is held, the 

units will increase by 5. 

5. 

Press and release the 

SET

 key to move to the 

“Year Setting”

 

Note: 

The unit will still try and receive the signal every day despite it being manually set. When it 
does receive the signal, it will change the manually set time into the received time. During 
reception attempts the WWVB tower icon will flash. If reception has been unsuccessful, then 
the WWVB tower icon will not appear but reception will still be attempted the following hour. 

 

WWVB time reception takes place from 12:00 am through 6:00 am each day (attempts 
WWVB reception every full hour within this  time frame). When the time signal is received for 
example at 1:00 am, the atomic clock will not attempt to receive the WWVB signal for the 
remaining hours until 6:00 am. Therefore, the next signal attempt will take place between 
12:00 am and 6:00 am the next day. The other times WWVB reception takes place, are upon 
setup and after manual time set exiting mode. Reception is generally not possible during 
daylight hours due to the interference of the sun. 

 

YEAR SETTING 

The year can be selected sequentially from 2000 to 2049 and will then start over again 
(default setting 2000). Only the last 2 digits of the year will be visible on LCD2.
