Initial Setup
1. Insert A/C adapter into the wall outlet then into the display or insert 2 new AAA batteries (not
included) into the display (see Power the Atomic Projection Alarm). The Projection Alarm will light
up and display time and indoor temperature.
2. Insert 2 new AA batteries into the transmitter, observing the correct polarity (see Install Batteries in
the Outdoor Transmitter).
3. Keep the transmitter 5-10 feet from the Projection Alarm for 15 minutes to establish a good
connection.
4. Within 3 minutes, the outdoor temperature should be displayed on the Projection Alarm. If the outdoor
temperature is not displayed after 3 minutes, remove power from the transmitter and the display for
60 seconds and start again from step 1.
5. For optimum 433 MHz transmission, the outdoor transmitter should be placed a distance of no more
than 200 feet (60 meters, open air) from the Projection Alarm.
IMPORTANT: When operating on A/C power, the backlight, projection and USB charging port will turn off
while the Projection Alarm searches for the WWVB signal, to avoid interference. The backlight and
projection will return after the 2-10 minute search. The USB charging port will then resume working.
