*Please note the radio signal can be received in all 48US mainland states and
some parts of Canada, close to the US border. N.I.S.T. radio control signal is
not received in Alaska and Hawaii. In these locations, this radio controlled
clock will only function as a normal quartz clock, and must be set manually.

" atomic " electronically encoded signals for
the four time zones in the continental USA, the accuracy of the "atomic " radio
controlled clock became available to the general public. Recent technology
enabled this process to be miniaturized and to be offered at reasonable cost.
The N.I.S.T. ( National Institute of Standards & Technology ), broadcasts
electronically encoded time signals, from the antenna located in Fort Collins,
Colorado, based on the USA atomic clock. (For more information on the
N.I.S.T.transmission and cesium atomic clock, visit their website:
The word "atomic" is applied to the radio controlled clocks, which pick up the
encoded signal and decode it, synchronizing within a split second of theAtomic
N.I.S.T. clock. In addition, the radio signal automatically sets the calendar and
adjusts for daylight savings or standard time.

The clock can be forced to attempt to synchronize at any time. With the bottom
left switch in the LOCK position, press in the second button from the left,
in the top row. Synchronization may not be immediate, so please allow some
time for the clock to "synch".
D) Manual Setting
If you are out of the receiving range of the radio control signal, or if you prefer,
the clock can be manually set. Once it is manually set the clock will attempt to
synchronize for few days. If all attempts fail, the receiver circuit is put into the
sleep mode to conserve power. The clock then functions as a quartz clock until
Forced Synchronization is attempted. (See C above).

with a radiating beacon.
*POINT of INTEREST
After setting is done, put Mode switch back to LOCK position
For the best visual quality on the display screen, avoid locations where there is a
strong glare or reflection on the display lens.
2. SETTING THETIME AND DATE
A) Setting theTime and Date Through Synchronization
After the batteries are installed the clock will automatically enter the synchronization
mode. This is indicated by the radiating Tower symbol, blinking on the display.
At this point, DO NOT press any buttons, as this may disturb the synchronization
process.

The remote sensor can bewall mounted; using the keyhole provided on back
of the unit,in either an outdoor or indoor location.
Your clockhas the capability to read anddecode a total of 3 remote sensors.
These additional remote sensors, whichneed to be purchased separately,
can be usedfor either outdoor or indoor temperature readings.
If additional sensors are used, you will need to set each remote sensor to a
different channel, ( see Fig. 19b ) then follow the registration procedure for
each remote unit used. Channels on the remote and base unit are pre -set to
Channel 1, nothing needs to be adjusted. However, if you are using more than
one remote sensor, you can adjust the settings to the other channels 2 or 3.
With the bottomleft button in the LOCK position, press the top far right button,
the channel display, (located at the bottom left side of the clock screen), will start to
blink and at the same time the outdoor or second thermometer display will show
--.- , and the remote sensor unit light will start to blink.

Note: Recommended operating temperature for remote sensor:
-20 C to +50 C
When the clock unitreceives the remote sensor'sradio signal, the outdooror
second temperature will be displayed, and the lines above the channel
display will begin to radiate, as shown in Fig. 18b This indicates that the
remote sensor has registeredcorrectly .

5. Indoor and Outdoor Thermometer
Your clock has a special wireless thermometer function, which can display
the indoor temperature, as well a second temperature. Most people use it
to read outdoor temperature, but it can be used to keep track of the
temperature in another part of the house, baby's room, etc. The outdoor or
second temperature will be detected by the external remote sensor, which
is included. The encoded temperature data will be sent to the clock via radio
signals, transmitted by the remote sensor. Your clock comes with one remote
thermo sensor unit, additional units need to be purchased separately.
A) Registering the Remote Sensor
After installing or activating the batteries in your clock and in the remote
sensor unit, the sensor will need to register with your clock, to get the outdoor
or second temperature reading.
