SETTING UP:
Alkaline batteries are recommended for use in both units. Avoid using
rechargable batteries.
NOTE: Do not set the clock until the outdoor temperature is displayed.
1.
Place batteries in the outdoor transmitter first, then into the atomic clock. DO NOT
PRESS ANY BUTTONS FOR 15 MINUTES.
2.
After 15 minutes both the Indoor and Outdoor areas on your clock should have a
temperature showing. If not, remove both sets of batteries, wait 15 minutes and repeat step
one.
3.
After the clock receives the outdoor temperature the WWVB time code reception will
automatically start. This reception typically takes between 5-10 minutes in good conditions.
If after 15 minutes the WWVB time has not been received, use the
“SET”
key to manually
enter the set-up mode and change either the time or date in order to activate the WWVB
reception (see manual settings below). The clock will then automatically attempt to receive
the WWVB time from 12:00 am through 6:00 am each day (attempts WWVB reception
every full hour within this time frame). When this is successful, the received time will
override the manually set time. The date is also updated with the received time (Please
refer to notes on “
Radio controlled time
” and “
Manual time setting
”).
4.
After the time signal has been received or the search mode has been manually stopped the
indoor temperature will be displayed.
Note
:
When changing batteries in either of the units, ensure that the batteries do not spring free from
the contacts. Always wait at least 15 minutes after removing the batteries before reinserting,
otherwise start up and transmission problems may occur.
