Weekday
SETTING UP:
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 10 MINUTES.
2.
After 10 minutes both the Indoor and Outdoor areas on your clock should have a temperature showing. If
not, remove both sets of batteries, wait 10 minutes and repeat step one.
3.
After the clock receives the outdoor temperature, and 10 minutes has elapsed, set your time zone using the
manual settings below. The default (factory) time zone is Eastern Standard Time.
4.
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 or overnight in poor conditions or
long distances from Colorado. If after 10 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
”).
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 10 minutes after removing the batteries before reinserting, otherwise start up and
transmission problems may occur.
