FAQ and Tips!

CONSTANT backlight & projection MUST OPERATE with included 5V power adapter cord. You may test this by removing back-up batteries inside clock. If LCD turns off, plug is not connected properly. Check back line-in port in the back of clock and in wall outlet. When LCD turns on, you may install batteries back into clock.

Alarms

• TO SET: Hold the ALARM button to enter into settings mode.
• Press the PLUS/MINUS (+/-) buttons to adjust flashing values. Holding either button will adjust values quickly.
• Press ALARM button to confirm HOUR settings and move to MINUTES. Pressing the Snooze button will exit settings mode.
• Alarm is 2 minute crescendo sound (increased beep sound) and will shut off completely when duration expires.
• Activated Alarm: the Alarm Time & Bell icon will display on LCD, when active. (You may view Calendar instead, by pressing Calendar button)
• When alarm sounds, press SNOOZE/LIGHT button to silence alarm for 10 minutes. LCD will show Zzz and be flashing. Pressing any other button than the Snooze/Light button will silence alarm for 24 hours.

Projection settings

• Projection options are TIME only; INDOOR TEMP only; OUTDOOR TEMP only; ALTERNATING Time + Indoor Temp + Outdoor Temp

Loss of Outdoor temperature ('HI' or 'LO' view) ('NO' view)

• If LCD displays 'HI' or 'LO' for outdoor temperature, check that batteries have not weakened or leaked. (*We recommend batteries have expiration date 6 years in advance of current year, or 1.48 volts on voltmeter) Overpowered or underpowered batteries can cause this reading.
• Check batteries inside outdoor sensor. NOTE: if outdoor humidity reads 'HI' or 'LO' your sensor may be detecting readings below 10% humidity.
• 'NO' reading (30 minutes) will indicate loss of connection to outdoor sensor. Your clock will search every 3 minutes for reconnection.
• If outdoor temperature readings do not appear begin a manual search from your clock. HOLD the PLUS (+) button to search for outdoor sensor.
• Signal icon will flash, and dashes will appear in outdoor temp area on LCD. Icon will stop flashing and remain constant once sensor has been located. If no sensor is located, 'NO' will again appear. You will want to attempt a Factory Reset if no connection can be made.
• Distance, Interference, Resistance - We recommend mounting wireless outdoor sensor protected from direct sunlight (accuracy) and from constant precipitation (performance), well ventilated. On a North-facing structure and sheltered (do not use plastic bag, as sensor must be ventilated for humidity and moisture build-up) Keep away from electronical interference, as sensor uses frequency to transmit to clock. Range is within 300ft (100m) from clock without any obstructions, so keep that wall materials (brick, concrete, metal, etc), glass, foliage, etc will reduce range.

Factory Reset

• Test (new) batteries (6 year expiration date, in advance of current year and/or 1.48 volts on voltmeter) (should be well-known brand name, standard alkaline batteries, avoid rechargeable, heavy-duty, ultra, super, or plus type batteries. You can even receive weak/dead batteries in new package.
• Bring sensor within 5 to 10ft away from clock. Remove all cords and batteries from clock and sensor.
• While no power, remove residual electricity from clock by pressing any button 20 times. LCD should be blank and all memory cleared.
• Install fresh, new batteries into sensor first. Plug power adapter into wall outlet, then into back of clock (make sure plugged in tightly, should hear soft click when made connection into plug port.) Install fresh, new back-up batteries into clock. LEAVE UNITS alone for 15 minutes before setting any time/date or other settings.
• AFTER 15 MINUTES, check that temperatures are displaying on clock. You may remount sensor and adjust settings on clock.
