Atomic Clock and Calendar

Your WeatherGuide™ has a radio-controlled clock/calendar that sets
itself to the radio signal transmitted by the U.S.Atomic Clock located
in Colorado.To synchronize the atomic clock:

1. Press and hold the “-PMCE/RCC”

button on the back of the base unit.The

unit will beep.The antenna icon

will

flash on the screen.
Please

note: reception

may

take

2-10 minutes.

2. When the

icon is steady, the

Atomic Clock has been successfully
synchronized.

3. Choose your time zone by pressing the

“PMCE/RCC” button.

Please note: If the

icon disappears, the Atomic time signal is not

available at the moment.Try another location later away from possible
sources of interference, such as mobile phones, appliances, computers,
refrigerators,TVs, etc. Daytime conditions such as sunlight and other
atmospheric interferences can affect synchronization; try setting the
clock during evening hours. Please note: if the signal is weak, it may take
up to 24 hours for the atomic clock to establish a connection. In the
meantime, the clock may be manually set. Once the atomic signal is
found, it will override the manually programmed time and date.

The Atomic Clock will have a daily synchronization at 2:05 am Pacific
Time every day. Each reception cycle is 2.5 minutes minimum and 10
minutes maximum.
