5. Setup

5.1 Powering the Units

• Display Unit: Insert 2xAA batteries (not included) into the battery compartment. For continuous operation and backlight, connect an AC adapter (not included) to the DC input port.
• Outdoor Sensor: Insert 3xAA batteries (not included) into the battery compartment. The integrated solar panel will help extend battery life.

5.2 Initial Synchronization

Before placing the outdoor sensor in its final location, ensure both the display unit and the outdoor sensor are powered on and placed next to each other. This allows them to establish a connection. Confirm successful connection before proceeding.

5.3 Atomic Clock Synchronization

Upon initial power-up or after a reset, the display unit will automatically search for the WWVB atomic clock signal at 1:00 AM, 2:00 AM, and 3:00 AM. During this search, the screen may turn dark for approximately 7 minutes. If the screen does not stay on after the search, press the brightness adjustment button located on the side of the main unit.

5.4 Mounting the Outdoor Sensor

For accurate readings, mount the outdoor sensor in an open area, free from obstructions like trees or buildings that could block wind or rain. Ensure it is easily accessible for maintenance. The wireless transmission range is up to 330 feet (100 meters).
