To achieve a true temperature reading, avoid mounting where direct sunlight can reach the outdoor temperature transmitter. It is recommended to mount the outdoor temperature
transmitter on a North-facing wall or in any well shaded area. The maximum transmitting range is 330 feet (100 meters) obstacles such as walls, concrete, and large metal objects can
reduce the range.
Place both units in their desired location, and wait approximately 10 minutes before permanently mounting to ensure that there is proper reception. The outdoor temperature transmitter is
not waterproof and should not be placed anywhere it will become submerged in water or be directly in the rain.
POSITIONING THE ATOMIC CLOCK:
There are two possible ways to mount the atomic clock:
• use of the foldout table stand, or
• wall mounting
FOLDOUT TABLE STAND
The foldout table stand leg is located on the backside. Pull the stand out from the bottom center edge of the atomic clock, below the battery
compartment. Once the foldout table stand is extended, place the atomic clock in an appropriate location.
WALL MOUNTING
1) Using a straightedge, horizontally space at 2-3/4 of an inch (70 mm) three screw positions on a wall.
2) Install three mounting screws (not included) into a wall within transmission range—leaving approximately 3/16 of an inch (5mm)
extended from the wall.
3) Place the atomic clock onto the screws, using the hanging holes on the backside. Gently pull the atomic clock down to lock the screws into place.
Note:
Always ensure that the atomic clock locks onto the screws before releasing.
POSITIONING THE OUTDOOR TEMPERATURE TRANSMITTER
The outdoor temperature transmitter can be mounted with the use of screws.
MOUNTING WITH SCREWS
1) Remove the mounting bracket from the outdoor temperature transmitter.
2) Place the mounting bracket over the desired location. Through the two screw holes of the bracket, mark the mounting surface with a pencil.
3) Where marked, start the screw holes into mounting surface.
4) Screw mounting bracket onto the mounting surface. Ensure that the screws are flush with the bracket.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Problem:
The LCD is faint.
Solution:
1) Replace the batteries.
Problem:
No reception of WWVB signal
Solution:
1) It may help reception to face the
front of the atomic clock in the
general direction of Ft. Collins,
Colorado.
2) Wait overnight for signal.
3) Be sure the atomic clock is at
least 6 feet (2 meters) from any
electrical devices, i.e. TV sets,
computers, or other radio
controlled clocks.
4) Remove batteries for five
minutes, reinsert and leave the
unit alone overnight without
pressing any keys.
Problem:
Hour is incorrect (minute and date
are correct).
Solution:
1) Be sure the correct time zone
and daylight saving time is
selected. North American Time
Zones are negative numbers.
Problem:
"OF.L“ appears in the indoor
temperature section of the LCD
Solution:
1) Move the atomic clock to an
area with warmer or cooler
surrounding temperature.
Current surrounding
temperatures are outside
measuring range. Batteries
Problem:
"--.-" appears in the outdoor
temperature section of the LCD.
Solution:
1) Remove the batteries of both
units for ten minutes. Press any
button 20 times with batteries
out then reinsert them again.
Make sure the batteries are new
and fresh.
2) Move the atomic clock closer to
the transmitter or place the
transmitter closer to the atomic
clock. Make sure the clock is at
