® ATOMIC CLOCK WITH OUTDOOR WIRELESS TEMPERATURE AND MOON PHASE MODEL 87700 Instruction Manual FEATURES: ATOMIC CLOCK: Hanging holes LCD1 display LCD2 Battery cover display Function keys Foldable stand • WWVB Radio controlled time with manual time setting • 12/24 hour time display •...
• Indoor temperature display • Outdoor temperature display via 433MHz transmission • Wall mount or freestanding • Current moon phase display OUTDOOR TEMPERATURE TRANSMITTER: • Remote transmission of outdoor temperature to the atomic clock by 433 MHz signals • Wall mounting case Holder TO INSTALL AND REPLACE BATTERIES IN THE ATOMIC CLOCK The atomic clock uses 2 x AA, 1.5V batteries.
SETTING UP: NOTE: Do not set the clock until the outdoor temperature is displayed. Place batteries in the outdoor transmitter first, then into the atomic clock. DO NOT PRESS ANY BUTTONS FOR 10 MINUTES. After 10 minutes both the Indoor and Outdoor areas on your clock should have a temperature showing.
FUNCTION KEYS The atomic clock has four easy to use keys: SET key : To enter into the set mode for the following functions: time zone, DST ON/OFF (daylight saving time), language, hour, minute, year, month, day, weekday, 12/24 hour, ºC or ºF temperature display + key : To toggle between the seconds, temperature or weekday display To change any values in manual set mode...

Therfore, a full moon is a complete dark circle.
TIME ZONE SETTING After entering the manual setting mode as described above, the time zone can be set using the number of hours different from Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) range in LCD2. To do this: The time zone (LCD2) will start flashing (Default setting "-5h“). Select the desired time zone by pressing and releasing the + key.
E = Spanish (Espanol) D = German (Deutsch) Set the desired language for the weekday display in LCD 2 by use of the + key. Press and release the SET key to enter the mode “Manual Time Setting”. MANUAL TIME SETTING In case the atomic clock is not able to detect the WWVB-signal (disturbances, transmitting distance, etc.), the time can be manually set.
The year digits will start flashing on LCD2. Select the desired year by use of the + key. Press and release the SET key to switch to the “Month Setting”. MONTH SETTING The month digits on LCD2 will start flashing. Set the desired month by use of the + key. Press and release the SET key to move to the mode “Date Setting”.
• If no keys are pressed for at least 15 seconds in setting mode, the atomic clock will automatically switch back to normal display mode. ALARM SETTING To enter into the alarm setting mode: Hold the ALM key for 4 seconds. The hour digits start flashing. Press and release the + key to set the hour.
433MHz RECEPTION CHECK FOR OUTDOOR TEMPERATURE TRANSMITTER The atomic clock will receive the temperature data within 10 minutes. If the temperature data is not received 10 minutes after setting up (the display shows “- - -”), then please check the following points: The distance of the atomic clock or outdoor temperature transmitter should be at least 6 feet away from any interfering sources such as computer monitors or TV sets.
WWVB RADIO CONTROLLED TIME The NIST radio station, WWVB, is located in Ft. Collins, Colorado and transmits the exact time signal continuously throughout the United States at 60 kHz. The signal can be received up to 2,000 miles away through the internal antenna in the atomic clock. However, due to the nature of the Earth’s Ionosphere, reception is very limited during daylight hours.
ICON DESCRIPTION: Unsuccessful reception of WWVB Currently searching for the signal. Will work as normal quartz Successful reception of WWVB time signal (tower clock. Will search for the WWVB time WWVB time signal blinking) signal overnight. POSITIONING Before permanently mounting ensure that the atomic clock is able to receive WWVB signals from the desired location.
WALL MOUNTING 1) Using a straightedge, horizontally space at 2.36 inches (60 mm) three screw positions on a wall. 2) Install three mounting screws (not included) into a wall within transmission range—leaving approximately 3/16 of an inch (5mm) extended from the wall. 3) Place the atomic clock onto the screws, using the hanging holes on the backside.
Screw mounting bracket onto the mounting surface. Ensure that the screws are flush with the bracket. MOUNTING WITH ADHESIVE TAPE With a nonabrasive solution, clean and dry the back of the mounting bracket and the mounting surface to ensure a secure hold.
Solution: 1) Remove the batteries of both units for ten minutes, then reinsert them again. Make sure the batteries are new and fresh. See setting 2) Move the atomic clock closer to the transmitter or place the transmitter closer to the atomic clock. Make sure the clock is at a receivable range from the transmitter.
Outdoor : -21.8ºF to +157.8ºF with 0.2ºF resolution -29.9ºC to +69.9ºC with 0.1ºC resolution ("OF.L“ displayed if outside this range) Temperature checking interval Indoor: every 10 seconds Outdoor: every 5 minutes Transmission distance: maximum 200 feet in open field, depending upon surrounding structures, mounting location and possible interfering sources (see www.skyscaninfo.com for additional information).
