PROGRAMMING

A. SETTING THE TIME

There are two methods by which the time

and date can be set: 1) Automatically via

WWVB reception, or 2) Manually.

B. WWVB (Radio-Controlled Time)

This method requires you to do nothing,

except wait for the signal to be received,

and to select a time zone. Reception

usually takes approximately 6-10 minutes

during optimal conditions. The best

conditions for reception is at night,

between midnight and 6:00 am—when

there is less atmospheric interference. To

keep your time as accurate as possible, the

alarm clock conducts a WWVB search

every night between these hours, and

overrides any manually set time. The

WWVB tower icon (appearing in the

TIME LCD) will flash when a signalsearch

is in progress and a signal is being

received, and will remain steady when the

signal has been received. If the WWVB

time has not been received after 10

minutes of battery installation, you may

manually set the time or wait for the

WWVB reception.

 

About Radio-Controlled Time signal,

WWVB:

The NIST (National Institute of Standards

and Technology—Time and Frequency

Division) WWVB radio station is located in

Ft. Collins, Colorado, and transmits the

exact time and date 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 alarm clock. However, due to the

nature of the Earth’s Ionosphere, reception

is very limited during daylight hours. The

alarm clock will search for a signal every

night when reception is best. The WWVB

radio station derives its signal from the

NIST Atomic clock in Boulder, Colorado. A

team of atomic physicists is continually

measuring every second, of every day, to an

accuracy of ten billionths of a second per

day. These physicists have created an

international standard, measuring a second

as 9,192,631,770 vibrations of a Cesium-

133 atom in a vacuum. For more

information please see the NIST website at

www.boulder.nist.gov/timefreq/stations/wwvb.htm.

time zone. Please note that the clock will

only search for a signal when it is set

between “GMT-4 and GMT-10.The alarm

clock will set to any time zone from

“GMT” to “GMT-12”. Outside this range,

it will only be necessary to set the hour to

the correct hour, leaving the time zone set

to your local time zone. For example, if

you are traveling to Hong Kong, you will

need to manually set the hour to the local

time. When the clock is back in the US, it

will search for a signal and set to the

proper time according to the time zone

selected.
