For best results:
SETUP SENSOR
1.
Open the remote sensor battery compartment with
a small Phillips screwdriver.
• Insert the batteries and select the channel before
you mount the sensor.
2.
Insert 2 alkaline batteries (UM-3 or "AA" size 1.5V),
matching the polarity as shown in the battery
compartment.
• Place the sensor out of direct sunlight and
moisture.
SWITCH
OPTION
Channel
Channel 1 - 3. If you are using
more than one sensor, select a
different channel for each sensor.
3.
Set the channel. The switch is located in the battery
compartment.
4.
Place the sensor near the main unit. Press RESET
on the sensor. Then, press and hold MEM and
CHANNEL on the main unit to initiate signal sending
between the sensor and the main unit. The reception
icon on the main unit will blink for approximately
3 minutes while it is searching for the sensor. (Refer
to the Sensor Data Transmission section for more
information.)
5.
Close the remote sensor battery compartment.
6.
Secure the sensor in the desired location using the
wall mount or table stand.
• Do not place the sensor more than 30 meters
(98 feet) from the main (indoor) unit.
• Position the sensor so that it faces the main
(indoor) unit, minimizing obstructions such as
doors, walls, and furniture.
• Place the sensor in a location with a clear view
to the sky, away from metallic or electronic
objects.
• Position the sensor close to the main unit during
cold winter months as below-freezing
temperatures may affect battery performance and
signal transmission.
You may need to experiment with various locations to
get the best results.
NOTE The sensor's comfort level reading is based on
the recorded relative humidity. An indicator will be
displayed to show if the level is comfortable, wet or dry.

DATA TRANSMISSION
This product shows the current time, and day of week in
English, French, German, Italian, or Spanish. The US
Atomic Clock in Boulder, Colorado automatically updates
this information unless you disable the feature. The
signals are collected by the main unit when it is within
1500 km (932 miles) of a signal.
DESCRIPTION
Main unit is searching for
sensors.
At least 1 channel has
been found.
Channel 1 is selected (number
will change depending on the
sensor you select)
Initial reception takes 2 - 10 minutes, and is initiated
when you first setup the unit, and whenever you press
RESET. Once complete, the reception icon will stop
blinking. The icon is shown in the Clock Area.
The selected sensor cannot
be found. Search for the
sensor or check batteries.

SEARCH FOR SENSOR
To search for a sensor, press and hold MEM and
CHANNEL for 2 seconds.
To force a manual search for Atomic Clock signals, press
and hold
for 2 seconds. If no signal is found, check
the batteries.
NOTE If the sensor is still not found, check the
batteries, obstructions, and remote unit location.
NOTE Signals from household devices such as
doorbells, electronic garage doors, and home security
systems may cause temporary reception failure. This is
normal and does not affect general product performance.
The reception will resume once the interference ends.

NOTE If the Atomic Clock signal is received and the
hour is incorrect, use the "timezone offset" feature to
adjust it to the appropriate timezone. Please see "SET
