Setup
1. Battery Installation
The clock unit and outdoor sensor require batteries for operation. Ensure correct polarity (+/-) when inserting batteries.
- Main Clock Unit: Open the battery compartment on the back and insert 3x AA batteries (not included).
- Outdoor Sensor: Open the battery compartment and insert 2x AAA batteries (not included).
Image: This image illustrates the battery requirements for the LFF Atomic Clock. The main clock unit requires three AA batteries, and the wireless outdoor sensor requires two AAA batteries. Batteries are not included with the product.
Alternatively, the main clock unit can be powered continuously using the included power adapter. Insert the adapter into the DC port on the back of the clock.
2. Initial Synchronization (Atomic Clock)
After inserting batteries, the clock will automatically attempt to synchronize with the atomic time signal (RCC). This process may take several minutes to several hours, depending on your location and signal strength. The RCC reception icon will flash during synchronization and become solid when a stable signal is received.
- For best reception, place the clock near a window and away from electronic devices that may cause interference.
- To manually initiate an atomic signal search, press and hold the DOWN/WAVE/°C/°F button for a few seconds.
3. Outdoor Sensor Placement
Place the outdoor sensor in a shaded, dry location, protected from direct sunlight and precipitation, to ensure accurate temperature readings. The sensor should be within the 330ft (100m) wireless range of the main clock unit.
Image: This image demonstrates the wireless range and ideal placement for the LFF Atomic Clock's outdoor sensor. The sensor should be placed outdoors, within 330 feet (100 meters) of the main unit, and in a location that allows for clear signal transmission, such as mounted on an exterior wall.
- Ensure the sensor is mounted vertically to allow for proper drainage.
- Avoid placing the sensor near heat sources (e.g., vents, windows) or reflective surfaces that could affect temperature accuracy.
- The clock supports up to 3 outdoor sensors. If using multiple sensors, press the CHANNEL button on the main unit to cycle through them.
Operating Instructions
1. Manual Time and Date Setting
If the atomic clock signal is not available or you prefer to set the time manually:
- Press and hold the SET button for 3 seconds to enter time setting mode. The hour digit will flash.
- Use the UP/ALARM or DOWN/WAVE/°C/°F buttons to adjust the flashing value.
- Press SET again to confirm and move to the next setting (e.g., Minute, Year, Month, Day, Time Zone, 12/24-hour format).
- Repeat steps 2 and 3 until all settings are configured.
- Press SET one last time or wait 15 seconds for the clock to exit setting mode automatically.
2. Setting the Alarm
- Press the ALARM button once to display the alarm time.
- Press and hold the ALARM button for 3 seconds to enter alarm setting mode. The hour digit will flash.
- Use the UP/ALARM or DOWN/WAVE/°C/°F buttons to adjust the hour.
- Press ALARM again to confirm the hour and move to the minute setting.
- Use the UP/ALARM or DOWN/WAVE/°C/°F buttons to adjust the minute.
- Press ALARM one last time to confirm and exit alarm setting mode.
To activate or deactivate the alarm, press the ALARM button briefly when the current time is displayed. The alarm icon will appear or disappear on the display.
3. Temperature Unit Selection (°C/°F)
To switch between Celsius and Fahrenheit for temperature display, press the DOWN/WAVE/°C/°F button briefly during normal time display.
4. Daylight Saving Time (DST)
The clock is designed to automatically adjust for Daylight Saving Time if the atomic signal is received. A DST icon will appear on the display when DST is active.
5. Large Display Readability

Maintenance
- Cleaning: Wipe the clock and sensor with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or chemicals.
- Battery Replacement: Replace batteries in both the main unit and outdoor sensor when the low battery indicator appears on the display. Always replace all batteries at once with new ones of the same type.
- Storage: If storing the clock for an extended period, remove all batteries to prevent leakage.
Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Solution |
|---|---|
| No display on clock unit. | Check battery installation (polarity, charge). Ensure power adapter is securely connected if used. |
| Time is incorrect or not synchronizing. | Ensure the clock is placed near a window, away from interference. Manually initiate atomic signal search (press and hold DOWN/WAVE/°C/°F). Check time zone setting. |
| Outdoor temperature not displayed or inaccurate. | Check batteries in the outdoor sensor. Ensure sensor is within range (330ft/100m) and not obstructed. Press CHANNEL button to re-establish connection. Relocate sensor to a shaded, dry area. |
| Alarm does not sound. | Ensure the alarm is activated (alarm icon visible). Check alarm time setting. |
