can be received up to 2,000 miles away through the internal
antenna in the Weather Station. However, due to the nature of the
Earth's Ionosphere, reception is very limited during daylight hours.
The weather station will search for a signal every night when
reception is best. The WWVB radio station derives its signal from
the NIST Atomic clock in Boulder, Colorado. A team of atomic
physicists is continually measuring every second, of every day, to
an accuracy of ten billionths of a second per day. These physicists
have created an international standard, measuring a second as
9,192,631,770 vibrations of a Cesium-133 atom in a vacuum. For
more information on the atomic clock and WWVB please see the
NIST website at http://www.boulder.nist.gov/timefreq/stations/

QUICK SET-UP GUIDE
Hint: Use good quality Alkaline Batteries and avoid
rechargeable batteries.
1. Have the indoor weather station and remote temperature sensor
3 to 5 feet apart.
2. Batteries should be out of both units for 10 minutes.
3. Place the batteries into the remote temperature sensor first
then into the indoor weather station.
(All outdoor remotes must be started before the indoor station)
4. DO NOT PRESS ANY BUTTONS FOR 15 MINUTES.
In this time the indoor weather station and remote temperature
sensor will start to talk to each other and the display will show the
indoor temperature, humidity and an outdoor temperature. If the
indoor weather station does not display all information after the
15 minutes please retry the set up as stated above. After all
information has been displayed for 15 minutes you can place your
sensor outdoors and set your time.
The remote temperature sensor should be placed in a dry, shaded
area. The remote temperature sensor has a range of 80 feet. Any
walls that the signal will have to pass through will reduce distance.
An outdoor wall or window can have up to 30 feet of resistance
and an interior wall can have up to 20 feet of resistance. Your
distance plus resistance should not exceed 80 ft. in a straight line.
Note : Fog and mist will not harm your remote temperature sensor
but direct rain must be avoided.
Note : The remote temperature sensor transmits a signal every
minute. After the batteries have been installed, the indoor weather

ABOUT WWVB (Radio Controlled Time)
The NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology-Time
and Frequency Division) WWVB radio station is located in Ft.
Collins, Colorado, and transmits the exact time and date signal
continuously throughout the United States at 60 kHz. The signal
station will search for the signal for a duration of 15 minutes. If
there is no temperature reading in the OUTDOOR LCD after 15
minutes, make sure the units are within range of each other, or
repeat the battery installation procedure. If a button is pressed
before the indoor weather station receives the temperature signal,
you will need to follow the battery installation procedure again.
To complete the set up of your wireless weather station after the
15 minutes have passed please follow the steps that follow in the
Detailed Set-Up Guide.
DETAILED SET-UP GUIDE
I. BATTERY INSTALLATION
A. REMOTE TEMPERATURE SENSOR
1. Remove the mounting bracket. The
bracket snaps on and off easily.
2. Remove the battery cover, by sliding the
cover down.
3. Observing the correct polarity install 2
AA batteries. The batteries will fit tightly
(to avoid start-up problems make sure
they do not spring free).
4. Replace the battery cover by sliding
upwards. Be sure battery cover is on
securely.
B. INDOOR WEATHER STATION
1. Remove the battery cover. To do this,
insert a solid object in the space
provided at the lower-central position
of the battery cover, then push up and
pull out on the battery cover.
2. Observe the correct polarity, and install
3 AA batteries.
3. Replace the battery cover.
Note: Immediately after the batteries have been installed, the LCD
(Liquid Crystal Display) will flash, and a tone will sound. Within a
few seconds the indoor temperature, indoor relative humidity, and
the weather icons (sun and clouds) will be displayed. If not, remove
batteries for 10 seconds and reinstall. If the outdoor temperature
is not displayed within four minutes, remove batteries from both
units, wait 10 seconds, and reinstall making sure to install batteries
