CHECKING REMOTE AND INDOOR TEMPERATURES The wave icon on the main unit's display located near the remote sensor reading line, indicates a good reception from the remote sensor. If the temperature goes above or below the temperature operating range stated in specifications, the display will show dashes “

READING THE KINETIC WAVE DISPLAY

The kinetic wave display shows the main unit (receiver) signal reception strength.

The unit is in searching mode.

WWVB RADIO CONTROLLED TIME

The NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology) radio station is located in Ft. Collins Colorado. It transmits an exact time signal continuously throughout the continental United States at 60 KHz frequency. The Color Weather Forecaster with Indoor/Outdoor Thermometer can receive this WWVB signal through its internal antenna from up to 2,000 miles away. Due to the nature of the Earth’s ionosphere, reception can be limited during the daylight hours. The radio controlled clock will search for an alternate station that derives its signal from the NIST Atomic clock in Boulder, Colorado.

The WWVB tower icon on the main unit’s display will flash indicating radio signal reception from the WWVB station. If the tower icon is not fully lit, or if the time is not set automatically, please consider the following:

*During night-time hours, atmospheric disturbances are typically less severe and reception may improve.

A single daily reception is sufficient enough to keep the accuracy reading within 1 second.

9

*Make sure the main unit is positioned at 8 feet minimum distance from any interference source such as a TV, computer monitor, microwave, etc. The successful reception of the atomic time signal depends on the positioning and location of the clock. Always place the main unit by the window for better reception.

*Within concrete wall rooms such as basements or office buildings, the received signal may be weakened. Always place the unit near the window.

MAXIMUM AND MINIMUM

TEMPERATURES

The maximum and minimum record of the indoor and remote temperature will be automatically stored in the memory of the main unit (receiver). Main unit will display the minimum, maximum and the current reading upon each press the "CHANNEL" and " " at the same time. The unit will return to the current temperature display in 15 seconds. To clear the memory, press and hold "CHANNEL" for

3 seconds and all stored readings will be erased.

TEMPERATURE TRENDS

The temperature trend indicator shows the trend of temperatures collected at particular remote sight. There are three trends will be shown: rising, steady, and falling.
