Our Dr. Prepare projection clock sounded an alarm several times overnight. Neither of the two waking alarms are set. Can you tell me why? I can not find a model number on the clock.

The Dr. Prepare DPWS-OUT-001 projection clock may have sounded an alarm overnight due to reasons other than the waking alarms. Possible reasons include:
1. Temperature Alert – The clock has indoor and outdoor temperature measurement functions. If there is a built-in temperature alert feature, it may have triggered an alarm due to extreme temperature conditions. 2. Battery Warning – If the clock is running on batteries and they are low, it may emit a warning sound. 3. WWVB Signal Reception – If the clock automatically adjusts its time using the WWVB radio signal, a confirmation sound might occur during synchronization. 4. Other Notifications – The clock may have additional alert functions, such as barometric pressure changes or system notifications.
If waking alarms are off, checking these possible causes may help determine why the alarm sounded.

Open the battery compartment of the Wireless Remote Sensor. Insert 2 x AA batteries according to the "+" and "-" polarity marks. After pairing with the Wireless Remote Sensor, the Projection Clock enters the radio signals reception mode to synchronize time.
NOTE A flashing radio mast icon indicates that the WWVB signal reception has started. A continuously displayed radio mast icon indicates that the WWVB signals are received successfully. We recommend a minimum distance of 8 feet to all sources of interference, such as televisions or computer monitors.

You may refer to the following icons: The temperature is rising. The temperature remains constant. The temperature is falling. TRANSMISSION OF THE WIRELESS REMOTE SENSOR When the Projection Clock receives signals from a Wireless Sensor, the temperature from the sensor is displayed in the "OUT"...
MAXIMUM/MINIMUM TEMPERATURE To switch between indoor/outdoor maximum, minimum tempera- ture data, press the "MEM" button: — Once to display the indoor/outdoor maximum temperature readings. — Twice to display the indoor/outdoor minimum temperature readings. — Three times to return to interface of current temperature readings.
LOW BATTERY If the battery icon " " is displayed in the "IN" column, you need to replace the Projection Clock's battery. If the battery icon " " is displayed in the "OUT" column, you need to replace the specific Wireless Remote Sensor's battery based on the channel number displayed on the Projection Clock.
