READING THE KINETIC WAVE DISPLAY
The kinetic wave display shows the main unit (receiver)
signal reception strength.
The unit is in searching mode.
Temperature readings are
securely registered.
No signals. ˚F
4. Install two “AA” size alkaline batteries (not included)
matching to the polarities shown in the battery compartment.
5. Replace the battery compartment door and secure the screws.
6. Secure the remote sensor in the desired location.
GETTING STARTED
After batteries are installed, remote sensors will transmit
temperature readings at 45 second intervals. The main unit
may take up to 2 (two) minutes to receive the initial readings.
Upon successful reception, remote temperature will be
displayed. Then the main unit will automatically update
readings at 45-second intervals.
If no signals are received from the remote sensor(s) within
(2) two minutes, dashes “ ” will be displayed.
Press and hold [ ] button on the main unit for 2 seconds
to initiate another signal search.
BATTERY INSTALLATION:
MAIN UNIT
1. Open the battery compartment door.
2. Install two batteries (UM-3 or “AA” size 1.5V) matching
the polarity as shown in the battery compartment.
3. Replace the battery compartment door.
LOW BATTERY WARNING
A low-battery indicator [ ] will appear on the indoor or
remote temperature reading line of the main unit warning that
the corresponding batteries need replacement..
CHECKING REMOTE AND INDOOR TEMPERATURES
The wave icon on the main unit's display located near the
remote sensor reading line, indicates a good reception from
the remote sensor. If the temperature goes above or below the
temperature operating range stated in specifications, the
display will show dashes “ ”.
WWVB RADIO CONTROLLED TIME
The NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology)
radio station is located in Ft. Collins Colorado. It transmits
an exact time signal continuously throughout the continental
United States at 60 KHz frequency. The Atomic Clock
can receive this WWVB signal through its internal antenna
from up to 2,000 miles away. Due to the nature of the Earth’s
ionosphere, reception can be limited during the daylight hours.
The radio controlled clock will search for an alternate station
that receives its signal from the NIST Atomic clock in Boulder,
Colorado.
The WWVB tower icon on the main unit’s display will flash
indicating radio signal reception from the WWVB station.
If the tower icon is not fully lit, or if the time is not set
automatically, please consider the following:
* During night-time hours, atmospheric disturbances are
typically less severe and reception may improve.
A single daily reception is sufficient enough to keep
the accuracy reading within 1 second.
* Make sure the main unit is positioned at 8 feet minimum
distance from any interference source such as a TV,
computer monitor, microwave, etc. The successful reception
of the atomic time signal depends on the positioning and
location of the clock. Always place the main unit by the
window for better reception.
* Within concrete wall rooms such as basements or office
buildings, the received signal may be weakened.
Always place the unit near the window.
