OUTDOOR TEMPERATURE TREND
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.
WEATHER FORECAST
The weather station is capable of detecting pressure changes.
Based on collected data, it forecasts the weather for the next
12 to 24 hours.
READING THE KINETIC WAVE DISPLAY
The kinetic wave display shows the main unit (receiver) signal
reception strength.
BAROMETRIC PRESSURE
The barometric pressure arrows indicate if pressure is
rising, steady, or falling.
The unit is in searching mode
Temperature readings are
securely registered.

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 Jumbo Weather Clock
with Wireless 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.
* 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.
LOST COMMUNICATION
If the main unit display for the remote sensor goes blank,
press and hold [DOWN] button for 2 seconds to begin a new
signal search. If the signal still isn’t received,
please make sure that:
1. The remote sensor is in the proper location.
2. The distance between the main and remote units is not
over 100 feet.
* Within concrete wall rooms such as basements or office
buildings, the received signal may be weakened.
Always place the unit near the window.
NOTE:
1. The weather forecast accuracy is approximately 70%.
2. Display shows forecasted, not current conditions.
3. The “Sunny” icon indicates clear weather, even when
displayed during night-time.
