INSTANT TRANSMISSION offers you an immediate update (every 4 seconds!) of all your outdoor data measured from the transmitters: follow your climatic variations in real-time! · · · · · · · · · · · · · WWVB Radio controlled time with manual time setting 12/24 hour time display Time display: hour, minute, second optional Alarm setting with snooze function Calendar display Weekday display (4 languages to choose from: English, French, Spanish, and German) Time zone setting Daylight savings time ON/OFF option (DST) ºF or ºC temperature display selectable Indoor temperature display Outdoor temperature display via 915MHz transmission Wall mount or freestanding Current moon phase display OUTDOOR TEMPERATURE SENSOR: · FEATURES: ATOMIC CLOCK: Hanging holes Holder LCD1 display · Remote transmission of outdoor temperature to the atomic clock by 915 MHz signals Wall mounting case TO INSTALL AND REPLACE BATTERIES IN THE ATOMIC CLOCK Battery cover LCD2 display Function keys Foldable stand The atomic clock uses 2 x AA, 1. 5V batteries. To install and replace the batteries, please follow the steps below: 1. Insert finger or other solid object in the space at the bottom center of the battery compartment and lift up to remove the cover. [. . . ] The atomic clock will update the outdoor temperature display every 4 seconds. The range of the outdoor temperature sensor may be affected by the temperature. Also, the batteries may be reduced in power during periods of extreme cold temperatures. °F OR °C TEMPERATURE SETTING 1. The characters "°F" or "°C" will start flashing on LCD1 (Default setting °F). Using the + key, select "°C" for temperature display in degrees Celsius or "°F" for degrees Fahrenheit. Press and release the SET key to exit the setting mode and switch back to the normal display mode. To return to the normal display mode from anywhere in manual setting mode simply press the SNZ key anytime. EXIT THE MANUAL SETTING MODES · 7 8 915MHz RECEPTION CHECK FOR OUTDOOR TEMPERATURE SENSOR The atomic clock will receive the temperature data within 3 minutes. If the temperature data is not being received 3 minutes after setting up (the display shows "- - -"), then please check the following points: 1. The distance of the atomic clock or outdoor temperature sensor should be at least 6 feet (2 meters) away from any interfering sources such as computer monitors or TV sets. Avoid placing the receiver onto or in the immediate proximity of metal window frames. Using other electrical products such as headphones or speakers operating on the same signal frequency (915MHz) may prevent correct signal transmission and reception. Neighbors using electrical devices operating on the 915MHz signal frequency can also cause interference. Note: When the 915 MHz signal is received correctly, do not re-open the battery cover of either the outdoor temperature sensor or atomic clock, as the batteries may spring free from the contacts and force a false reset. Should this happen accidentally then reset all units (see Setting up above) otherwise transmission problems may occur. The maximum transmission range is 330 feet (100 meters) from the outdoor temperature sensor to the atomic clock (in open space). However, this depends on the surrounding environment and interference levels. The month&date/weekday/indoor temperature/outdoor temperature is the default. The display should now show the month&date/weekday/seconds/outdoor temperature. Press the + key a second time and the display will show the month&date/weekday/indoor temperature/seconds. Press the + key a third time and the display will show the month&date/seconds/indoor temperature/outdoor temperature. Press the + key a fourth time and the display will return to the normal display. MOON PHASE The Moon Phases and their corresponding dates appear in LCD 2. There are 12 visible Moon Phases that will show in the LCD 2: 9 10 New Moon Small Waxing Crescent Large Waxing First Quarter Crescent Small Waxing Gibbous Large Waxing Gibbous FOLDOUT TABLE STANDS The foldout table stands are located on the backside.
