Signal Interference
In some cases, the signal is affected by weather conditions and electrical
interferences, or the location of the clock itself may result in poor
reception. If the clock has not synchronized to the correct time within a
few days of activation, you may need to move the clock to a different
location.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q. How long will the battery last?
A
.
A good AA alkaline battery will last over 12 months.
Q:
Is there a version of analog clock with more than the four
continental US times zones?
A:
La Crosse Technology
®
does not make an analog clock with more
than four time zones. These time zones are PT (Pacific Time), MT
(Mountain Time), CT (Central Time), and ET (Eastern Time).
Q:
Can I shut off the WWVB signal?
A:
No. If you manually set the time, when the clock receives a WWVB
signal, that signal will override the manual set.
Q:
Is there a booster antenna to receive the WWVB signal in a
difficult location?
A:
No, the clock cannot work with a booster antenna. Opening the clock
or movement voids the warranty.
Q:
Can I wire a control timing circuit to the La Crosse Technology
®
atomic clock?
A:
No, the clock cannot work on a timing circuit. Opening the clock voids
the warranty.
Q: Why do the hands spin?
A:
When the hands spin about the same time every day the clock is
auto-correcting the time. The hour hand should not spin more than twice
around the clock.
A:
Hands may spin if the battery is under powered or over powered. Use
only Alkaline batteries in the clock.
Q: How do I adjust the Temperature or Humidity?
A:
Use a flat tipped screwdriver to gently turn the temperature or
humidity sensor screw at the back of the clock, until desired setting has
been reached.
Troubleshooting
The wonderful advantage of owning a radio-controlled clock is that it is
virtually trouble free. If the clock receives a clear time signal, it will set
