WHAT IS AN ATOMIC CLOCK?
An Atomic clock is a timepiece that maintains accuracy up to one second per million years
using the most precise method of time synchronization, radio signals. In North America, the
National Institute of Standards and Technologies (NIST) operates an Atomic clock in Fort
Collins, Colorado, that transmits the time codes via the radio station WWVB.
This quality TIMEX® clock includes a built-in receiver that picks up the Atomic radio signal
from WWVB. To maintain the best possible reception, place the unit so that the backside
faces in the general direction of Colorado. What's more, the IntelliTime® technology built
into this clock makes for hassle-free automatic setting and resetting for daylight saving time.
PLEASE NOTE: Due to solar radiation in the atmosphere, the atomic clock signal is weaker
during the day. Most synchronization will happen at night when there is less interference.

(only) batteries as shown here

2.	 Initial Setup - once the batteries are installed, the clock will power up. The display will
	 appear as follows:

The clock will initially set itself to the correct time and date, defaulting to EST (Eastern Standard
Time). It will also begin displaying the temperatures. The clock will begin searching for the
Atomic signal.
Note: The clock will adjust for daylight saving time, even if it is unable to receive the WWVB signal

After the clock acquires the Atomic signal (this may take 24-48 hours) the time, date and
daylight saving time changes will update automatically, giving you maintenance-free operation
and accuracy to the split second

POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS
Relocate or reposition the clock, making sure
the backside of the unit is facing in a direction
toward Colorado from your location.
Heavy stone or metal walls can obstruct the
signal and disrupt reception. Place the clock
at least 3 feet (0.91 m) from other electronic
devices (i.e. TV’s, microwaves, computers,
etc.) that can interfere with wireless signals.
You may be experiencing interference from
other wireless devices using the same radio
frequency channel. Relocate the main unit
and/or the wireless sensor. Both units must
be within 100 feet (30m) of each other. Make
sure units are placed at least 3 feet from other
electronic devices or appliances that may
interfere with the wireless communication
(i.e. TV’s, microwaves, computers, etc.)
You may need to reset both units by
removing and re-installing the batteries.
Relocate the main unit and/or the wireless
sensor. Both units must be within 100 feet
(30m) of each other. Make sure units are
placed at least 3 feet from other electronic
devices or appliances that may interfere
with the wireless communication (i.e. TV’s,
microwaves, computers, etc.)
You may need to reset both units by
removing and re-installing the batteries.
Check to make sure the batteries are installed
correctly. Use only fresh STANDARD “AA”
batteries, not generic or extra strength. Make
certain that the batteries are FRESH. If the
expiration date on your batteries is less than 6
years away, they may not contain a full charge
and can be weak.

Battery Choice & Temperature Range:
Extended periods of extreme cold temperatures (below
-4°F/ -20°C) can cause alkaline batteries to function
improperly. This may cause the outdoor wireless
sensor to stop transmitting temperature readings. We
recommend using lithium batteries in extreme low
temperature conditions to ensure continued operation of
the outdoor sensor.
For the digital atomic clock we recommend only alkaline batteries.

Placement of the Clock:
Place the clock in an area free of dirt and dust. To help ensure an accurate
indoor temperature measurement, be sure to place the main unit out of
direct sunlight, and away from any heat sources or vents in your home.
This clock may be hung on a wall using the integrated wall-hanging hole,
or you may place the unit on a tabletop or other flat surface using the
swing-out stands.

Placement of the Outdoor Sensor:
The wireless temperature sensor MUST BE PLACED OUTDOORS to capture and relay the
outdoor temperature to the clock display unit. You may place your wireless temperature
sensor outside up to 100 feet (30m) from the clock, as shown.
The sensor is water resistant and is designed
for outdoor use. However, to extend the life
of the product, place it in an area protected
from harsh weather elements. To ensure an
accurate temperature reading, be sure the
sensor is out of direct sunlight and away from
any heat sources.

The “Weather Trend” directional arrow icon will indicate one of three barometric pressure
trend directions. This will give an additional indicatin of future weather conditions

rising: clearing conditions likely
steady: current conditions will persist
falling: cloudy to stormy conditions likely

Wireless Signal Reception Icons
The main unit has a signal reception icon near the outdoor temperature display area. If
there are a low number of “bars” present, you may experience no temperature display
(“--”) or inaccuracy. In either case, you may need to relocate one of both of the units. If
most or all 4 of the bars are present, wireless reception is good and no action is required.

NOTE: You do NOT need to turn off the atomic clock to set the time manually. Once the clock receives the signal, it will adjust the
clock accordingl. However, you may choose to deactivate the atomic clock feature completely if you prefer to manually control
the clock or if you live in a remote area that does not readily receive the atomic signal. As long as the atomic clock is ON, it will
automaticlly adjust itself to the correct time, overriding your manual setting.

	 Press the UP (s) ARROW to or DOWN (t) ARROW buttons to turn OFF
	 Atomic signal. This will stop the clock from searching for the Atomic radio
	signal.
