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.

No signals.

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.
