Users Manual
Color Atomic Alarm Clock with 12 Hr. Forecast and Snooze Alarm Model: C86371 INTRODUCTION: The Color Atomic Alarm Clock offers radio-controlled time, weather forecast, indoor and outdoor temperature/humidity and heat index and dew point, on a stylish, colorful, and easy to read display. Includes a USB charge port that charges your devices from the Color Atomic Alarm Clock. COLOR ATOMIC ALARM CLOCK: Snooze/Light button Function buttons • Remove battery cover: Slide tab to the right and pull out to remove battery cover. • Install three fresh AA batteries according to the polarity markings. • Do Not Mix Old and New Batteries • Do Not Mix Alkaline, Standard, Lithium or Rechargeable Batteries If the Color Atomic Alarm Clock does not display indoor temperature after 60 seconds, remove adapter and batteries, and wait for at least 60 seconds before repeating the setup process. INSTALL BATTERIES IN THE OUTDOOR TRANSMITTER: • Slide the battery cover down and off the back of the transmitter. • Select the channel, 1, 2, or 3, by moving the switch on the right. • Insert two fresh AA batteries into the transmitter. Observe the correct polarity (see marking inside battery compartment). • Press and release the TX button one time. • Keep transmitter 5-10 ft. from the Color Atomic Alarm Clock during setup. • After 15 minutes, if the outdoor temperature area has a reading, you can move the outdoor transmitters to and outside location within range of the Color Atomic Alarm Clock. POSITIONING THE OUTDOOR TRANSMITTER The remote temperature transmitter should be mounted vertically to avoid damage. Place both units in the desired shaded locations, and wait approximately 1-hour before permanently mounting the transmitter to ensure that there is proper reception. The outdoor temperature/humidity transmitter is water resistant, not waterproof and should not be placed anywhere it will become submerged in water or subject to standing water or snow. Color LCD Battery 5 volt a/c Compartment OUTDOOR TEMPERATURE/HUMIDITY TRANSMITTER: Wall Hanging Hole LED lights when signal is sent. Battery Compartment Model:TX-14TH LCD WALL MOUNT Choose a location for the transmitter that is within range of the Color Atomic Alarm Clock and under an overhang for accuracy. Install one mounting screw (not included) into a wall leaving approximately ½ of an inch (12.7mm) extended. Place the transmitter onto the screw, using the hanging hole on the backside. Gently pull the transmitter down to lock the screw into place. To achieve a true temperature/humidity reading, mount where direct sunlight cannot reach the outdoor transmitter. Mount the outdoor transmitter on a North-facing wall or in any well shaded area. Under an eave or deck rail work well. The maximum transmitting range in open air is 200-feet (60 meters). Obstacles such as walls, windows, stucco, concrete, and large metal objects can reduce the range. Place the transmitter at least 6 feet in the air to improve signal transmission. Battery Compartment Model: TX-14TH-LCD INITIAL SET UP: • Insert A/C adapter or 3 AA batteries (not included) into the display. • Wait for the Temperature area to flash as the display searches for a signal from the outdoor transmitter. • Insert 2 fresh AA batteries into the transmitter, observing the correct polarity Press the TX button to send a signal. • Keep the transmitter 5-10 feet from the Color Atomic Alarm Clock. • IMPORTANT: When operating on a/c power, the backlight will turn off for 2-minutes while the Color Atomic Alarm Clock searches for the WWVB signal, to avoid interference. The backlight will return after the 2-minute search. • Within 3 minutes the station will beep and the outdoor temperature should be displayed on the Color Atomic Alarm Clock. If the outdoor temperature is not displayed after 3 minutes remove power from the transmitter and the display for 60 seconds and start again. • For optimum 433 MHz reception, the outdoor transmitter should be placed within 200 feet (60 meters, open air) from the Color Atomic Alarm Clock. • HOW TO POWER THE COLOR ATOMIC ALARM CLOCK: A/C power adapter: Insert the 5-volt a/c power adapter into a wall outlet, then into the Color Atomic Alarm Clock.

Note: When only one transmitter is connected, you cannot see other channels. WWVB RADIO CONTROLLED TIME The NIST radio station, WWVB, is located in Ft. Collins, Colorado and transmits the exact time signal continuously throughout the United States at 60 kHz. The signal can be received up to 2,000 miles away through the internal antenna in the Color Atomic Alarm Clock. However, due to the nature of the Earth’s Ionosphere, reception is very limited during daylight hours. The Color Atomic Alarm Clock will search for a signal every night when reception is best. The WWVB radio station derives its signal from the NIST Color Atomic Alarm Clock in Boulder, Colorado. WWVB RECEPTION ICON with full signal strength will appear on screen if the reception of atomic time is successful. • The tower icon will show solid when the display has received the WWVB signal. • No tower icon displayed. The display was unable to receive a signal at this time. • Reposition the display for better signal reception or try again at bedtime. BUTTON FUNCTIONS: Button Wall Hanging Hole LED lights when signal is sent. • Press and Release Functions Hold 3-5 seconds SET Move through program menu Confirm setting.
