If the WWVB time has not been received after 10 minutes of battery installation, you may manually set the time or leave the time function alone (reception will occur regardless).

  • Page 7: Time Zone Setting

    The default time zone is EST (Eastern Standard Time), to change this setting: 1. Press and hold the MODE/SET button for 5 seconds, or until “Lcd 5” flashes in the TIME LCD. 2. Press the MODE/SET button four more times; “-5” should flash in the TIME LCD. 3.

    I. WEATHER FORECAST The weather forecasting feature is estimated to be 75% accurate. By adjusting the sensitivity setting, you can achieve a better accuracy of forecast. The weather forecast is based solely upon the change of air pressure over time. In areas where the weather is not affected by the change of air pressure, this feature will be less accurate.

    then the weather has not changed or the change has been slow and gradual. If this happens on a regular basis, it may be necessary to adjust the weather forecast sensitivity. 2. WEATHER TENDENCY ARROWS Other possible displays in the TENDENCY LCD are 2 weather tendency arrows, one that points up and one that points down.

  • Page 18: Optional Outdoor Remote Senders

    SENDERS (OPTIONAL) The WS-7059U is able to receive signals from 3 different Remote Control Senders (RCS). The RCS model(s) that you choose will come with their own set of instructions— follow these instructions for a complete guide to setting up. When the RCS units are set up, INDOOR LCD also becomes the OUTDOOR LCD, however it will only be referenced as the former.

  • Page 20: Mounting

    Temperature Station is able to receive WWVB signals from the desired location. Also, extreme and sudden changes in temperature will decrease the accuracy of the Weather Station, and changes in elevation will result with inaccurate weather forecasting for the next 12 to 24 hours. These changes will require a 12 to 24 hour wait before obtaining reliable data.
  • Page 21 2. Fix a screw (not included) into the desired wall, leaving approximately 3/16 of an inch (5mm) extended from the wall. 3. Place the Indoor Temperature Station onto the screw using the hanging hole on the backside. Gently pull the Station down to lock the screw into place.

  • Page 22: Troubleshooting

    Problem: No reception of WWVB time signal. Solution: 1) Wait overnight for signal. 2) Be sure Weather Station is at least 6 feet from any electrical devices, such as televisions, computers, or other radio-controlled clocks. 3) Remove batteries for five minutes, reinsert and leave alone without pressing buttons overnight.

  • Page 23: Maintenance And Care

    • Extreme temperatures, vibration, and shock should be avoided to prevent damage to the units. • Clean displays and units with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use solvents or scouring agents; they may mark the displays and casings. • Do not submerge in water.
