Note:
When the 433 MHz signal is received correctly, do not re-open the battery cover of either the outdoor temperature transmitter or radio-controlled clock, as the batteries may spring free from the contacts and force a false reset. Should this happen accidentally then reset all units (see Setting-upabove) otherwise transmission problems may occur.
The maximum transmission range is 330 feet from the outdoor temperature transmitter to the radio-controlled clock (in open space). However, this depends on the surrounding environment and interference levels. If no reception is possible despite the observation of these factors, all system units have to be reset (see Setting-up). See our website www.skyscaninfo.com for more information.
POSITIONING
Before permanently mounting ensure that the radio-controlled clock is able to receive WWVB signals from the desired location. Also, extreme and sudden changes in temperature will decrease the accuracy of the radio-controlled clock, and changes in elevation will result with inaccurate temperatures readings for the next 12 to 24 hours. These changes will require a 12 to 24 hour wait before obtaining reliable data.
POSITIONING THE RADIO-CONTROLLED CLOCK:
There are 2 possible ways to mount the radio-controlled clock:
•use of the foldout table stands, or
•wall mounting
FOLDOUT TABLE STAND
The foldout table stand legs are located on the lower section of the backside of the radio-controlled clock. Pull the stands out from the bottom center edge, below the battery compartment. Once the foldout table stands are extended, place the radio-controlled clock in an appropriate location.
