POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Poor Atomic Clock

Relocate or reposition the clock, making sure

Reception

 

 

 

 

the backside of the unit is facing in a direction

 

(No bars)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

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.

Poor Outdoor

You may be experiencing interference from

Sensor Reception

other wireless devices using the same radio

(No bars)

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.

Bad Temperature

Relocate the main unit and/or the wireless

Reception

sensor. Both units must be within 100 feet

(blank or flashing

(30m) of each other. Make sure units are

temperature)

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.

 

 

Display Not Working

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.
