TO INSTALL AND REPLACE BATTERIES IN THE TEMPERATURE TRANSMITTER
The transmitter uses 2 x AA,1.5V batteries. To install and replace the batteries, please follow the steps
below:
1.
Remove the cover.
2.
Insert the batteries, observing the correct polarity (see marking).
3.
Replace the battery cover on the unit.
SETTING UP: Do not set the clock until the outdoor temperature is displayed.
1.
Slide the battery cover open on the SkyScan Atomic Clock as indicated above (see "
To install and replace
batteries in the Atomic Clock
“ above).
2.
Checking the correct polarization, insert 2 x AA, 1.5V batteries into the battery compartment and replace the
battery cover.
3.
Once the batteries are in place, all segments of the LCD will light up briefly. Then the indoor temperature, the
time as -:--, the date as 1.1. , and weekday will be displayed
.
IMPORTANT
: If the indoor temperature is not displayed after a few seconds, remove the batteries and wait for
at least 10 seconds before reinserting them.
4.
Within 2 minutes of activating the SkyScan Atomic Clock, place the batteries into the transmitter (see “To install
and replace batteries in the Temperature Transmitter” above).
5.
After a few seconds of inserting the batteries into the transmitter, the Atomic Clock will start receiving data from
the transmitter. The remote temperature will then be displayed on the SkyScan Atomic Clock.
IMPORTANT: if this does not happen after 4 minutes, the batteries will need to be removed from both units and
reset from step 1. Remove the batteries and wait for at least 30 seconds before reinserting them.
6. After the clock receives the outdoor temperature, set your time zone using the manual settings below. The
default time zone is Eastern Standard Time.
7. 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 10 minutes the WWVB time has not
been received, use the SET key to manually enter the set 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
”).
Note
:
In the event of changing batteries of the unit ensure that the batteries do not spring free from the contacts. Always
wait at least 30 seconds after removing the batteries before reinserting, otherwise start up and transmission problems
may occur.
