ABOUT RADIO RECEPTION
After battery installation, the main unit will automatically
synchronize its time and date with the radio signal from the U.S.
Atomic Clock when it is within reception range of the signal.
When the main unit is receiving radio signal, the reception icon will
start to blink. The reception icon will show either strong or weak
reception depending on the strength of the radio signal. A complete
reception generally takes about two to ten minutes.
When the reception is complete the reception icon will stop blinking.
The reception icon will show as " " for no reception or "
successful reception.
For best reception, place the unit away from other equipment that
emit radio frequency or microwave signals such as TVs, radios,
PCs or microwave ovens. Other causes for signal interference
include electrical power transmission tower and/or steel reinforced
concrete construction.
