DESCRIPTION
CLOCK
Main unit is searching for
sensors.
This product can track the date and time for up to
2 locations (Clock with Offset Hour). The US Atomic
Clock in Boulder, Colorado automatically updates this
information unless you disable the feature. The signals
are collected by the main unit when it is within 1500 km
(932 miles) of a signal.
At least 1 channel has
been found.
Channel 1 is selected
(number will change
depending on the sensor
you select)
Initial reception takes 2 - 10 minutes, and is initiated
when you first setup the unit, and whenever you press
RESET. Once complete, the reception icon will stop
blinking. The icon is shown in the Clock Area.
--- shows in Temp
/ Humidity Areas
The selected sensor cannot
be found. Search for the
sensor or check batteries.

the batteries.
NOTE Signals from household devices such as
doorbells, electronic garage doors, and home security
systems may cause temporary reception failure. This is
normal and does not affect general product performance.
The reception will resume once the interference ends.
NOTE
If the Atomic Clock signal is received and the
hour is incorrect, use the "hour offset" feature to adjust
it to to the right value. Please see "SET CLOCK" on
