ADDITIONAL EQUIPMENT (not included) 1) Three fresh 1. 5V AA batteries (optional for alarm clock) 2) Two fresh 1. 5V AA batteries (for remote sensor) ABOUT WWVB (Radio Controlled Time) 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 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 projection alarm. [. . . ] After the top of the minute, a tone will sound for every second. It is possible that your projection alarm may not be exactly on the second due to the variance in the quartz. However, the clock will adjust the quartz timing over the course of several days to be very accurate; under 0. 10 seconds per day. Projection of Time and/or Remote Temperature 1. When plugged into an AC outlet the projection alarm can continuously project the time and/or remote temperature. When operating on batteries alone the projection alarm will only project when a button is pressed. The projection will auto-focus for display from three to six feet away. A dark surrounding will be necessary to clearly see the projection. The default is projecting time (Hour and Minutes). The icons change in order, from "sunny" to "partly sunny" to "cloudy" or the reverse. It will not change from "sunny" directly to "rainy", although it is possible for the change to occur quickly. If the symbols do not change then the weather has not changed, or the change has been slow and gradual. The projection alarm has an EL backlight designed for night viewing. This will light up for 2 seconds whenever a button is pressed. The EL backlight cannot be turned on constantly as this would drain the batteries and burn out the EL light. 11 F. The projection alarm measures indoor temperature with an internal sensor. This temperature is displayed in °F or °C depending on the time format (12 or 24 hour mode). When in 12-hour format, the temperature will be in °F. When in 24-hour mode the temperature will be in °C. The indoor temperature will take time to adjust to the surrounding temperature as the sensor is inside the case. If the remote temperature is placed next to the projection alarm more often than not the temperature will not be exact with one another. This is not a defect, but simply reflects the difference in measuring methods.
