TO INSTALL AND REPLACE BATTERIES IN THE TEMPERATURE
TRANSMITTER
Important!
- Do Not Mix Old and New Batteries
- Do Not Mix Alkaline, Standard, or Rechargeable Batteries
The Temperature Transmitter uses 2 x AA, IEC, LR6, 1.5V batteries. To
install and replace the batteries, please follow the steps below:
1.
Remove the cover.
2.
Insert the batteries, observing the correct polarity (see marking).
3.
Replace the battery cover on the unit.
Note: In the event of changing batteries in any of the units, all units need to be reset by
following the setting up procedures. This is because a random security code is assigned
by the transmitter at start-up and this code must be received and stored by the
Projection alarm clock in the first three minutes of power being supplied to it.
TO INSTALL AND REPLACE BATTERIES INTO THE PROJECTION
ALARM
The Projection Alarm uses 3 x AA, IEC LR6 1.5V batteries. To install and replace the
batteries, please follow the steps below:
1.
Insert finger or other solid object in the
space at the bottom center of the battery
compartment and lift up to remove the
cover.
2.
Insert batteries observing the correct
polarity (see marking).
3.
Replace compartment cover.
In addition or instead of inserting batteries, the AC adapter can be used:
1.
Connect the power adapter to a wall
socket
2.
Insert the adapter into the jack at the
bottom of the clock
3.
The Projection clock will now start
receiving the WWVB time signal. After
approximately 3 to 5 minutes, the WWVB
time will be displayed (Also see "SETUP"
below).
Important!
Use only the adapter provided with the projection clock and make sure that your
household voltage is appropriate to the working voltage of the transformer. Using the
incorrect power adapter may damage your Projection clock.
POWER SUPPLIED BY BATTERIES AND AC/DC ADAPTER
If the Projection clock is first powered by batteries and the power adapter is
subsequently used for extended period of time, the main power source of the Projection
clock will switch to AC/DC power. The batteries will then act as a backup power source
in case of power failure.
SETUP
1.
First, insert 2 x AA, IEC LR6 1.5V batteries into the transmitter.
2.
Within 1 minute of activating the sensor, insert 3 x AA, IEC LR6 1.5V batteries
into the projection clock (or use the A/C adapter to power up). Once the batteries
are in place, all segments of the LCD will light up briefly. Then the indoor
temperature and the time (displayed as 12:00), will be displayed. If the indoor
temperature is not displayed after a few seconds, remove the batteries and wait
for at least 30 seconds before reinserting them. Once the indoor data is displayed
proceed to step 2
3.
A few seconds after inserting the batteries into the transmitter, the projection clock
will start receiving data from the transmitter. The remote temperature will then be
displayed on the clock. If this does not happen after about 2 minutes, removed the
batteries from both units and restart the process from step 1.
4.
When the transmitter is set up, there is a testing period. Then WWVB time code
reception is automatically started just after the clock is activated. This takes
typically between 3-5 minutes in good conditions. This time period is an excellent
opportunity to locate the transmitter in suitable location outdoors. In order to
ensure sufficient 915 MHz transmission however, the distance between the
Projection clock and the transmitter should not be more than 330 feet (100
meters) (see notes on “Positioning”).
If after approximately 10 minutes the WWVB time has not been received, use the
MODE/ MIN key to manually enter a time (and date) initially. The clock will
automatically attempt to receive the WWVB time each day at 02:00am. When this
is successful, the received time will override the manually set time.
Note: Should the total time of inserting the batteries into the transmitter take longer than
1-2 minutes from the time of inserting the batteries into the projection clock, temperature
reception problems may occur.
When changing the batteries in the transmitter, the projection clock needs to be reset
(see notes on “Resetting the projection clock”).
RESETTING THE PROJECTION CLOCK
To reset the Projection clock to the factory default setting or in case of a malfunction or
changing batteries in the transmitter, please remove all batteries from the unit and
unplug the AC/DC adapter from any power source. With power disconnected, press any
button about 20 times, then wait at least for 3 minutes before powering up the Projection
clock again.
PROJECTION OF TIME / OUTDOOR TEMPERATURE
Note: The projection is a red light, not harmful under normal usage, yet care should be
taken to avoid looking directly into the light.
1.
When plugged into an AC outlet, the projection alarm can continuously alternate
between projecting the time and the outdoor temperature.
2.
When operating on batteries alone, the projection alarm will only project when the
SNOOZE button is pressed or the alarm is sounding.
3.
The projected display will auto-focus from about 5.5 to 6.5 feet (1.7 to 2.0 meters)
away. A dark surrounding will be necessary to clearly see the projection.
The direction of the display can also be rotated 360
° in 90° increments by pressing the
Projection Direction
button. The projector case can be rotated 180
° to further help
orient the projected display.
Note: If the Projection clock is powered through the adapter, the projection will be
constantly ON at the highest brightness level unless the brightness level is manually
changed to a lower brightness level afterwards. The brightness of the projection can be
adjusted to enhance the clarity of the projected time by pressing the key. Press and
release the key slowly to also turn off.
If the Projection clock is battery operated, the projection will be ON at the highest
brightness level only when the SNOOZE key is pressed. The intensity of the brightness
level of the projection cannot be changed. If the SNOOZE is released, the projection will
be turned OFF.
TOGGLE: TEMPERATURE, SECONDS, ALARM OR CALENDAR
By pressing shortly the MODE/MIN key, you will toggle between the following displays:
1.
Indoor and outdoor temperature
2.
Seconds
3.
Preset alarm time
4.
Day and Month
