Q.Can I set the time on the ATX manually?

A.If you manually set the time on the ATX, Daylight Savings changes will not occur and the clocks will not synchronize properly. It is required for proper operation that you install the ATX in a location that can receive the WWVB signal.

Q.What do I do if my ATX does not update for Daylight Savings Time?

A.Make sure the ATX has a clear view of the sky or faces toward Boulder, Colorado to insure it receives the WWVB signal.

Q.When does the ATX transmit the time to the secondary wall clocks?

A.The ATX transmits once per hour during the 58th minute between the 50th and 59th second. When the TRANS button is pressed, the ATX transmits every 10 seconds for one hour.

Q.When does the ATX listen for the WWVB radio signal?

A.The ATX listens for the WWVB radio signal 2 minutes and 40 seconds after every hour. The strength of the last signal reception can be determined by the signal strength indicator () on the display.
