ABOUT RADIO-CONTROLLED TIME - 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. 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. More information on the atomic clock and WWVB can be found at

www.nist.gov

PROGRAM MODE

Following is a list of steps to set up your new La Crosse Technology travel alarm clock.

•Please begin by removing the battery

cover on the rear of the travel alarm

shown in figure one.

•Next insert one AA alkaline battery

into the battery compartment making

sure to observe the correct polarity.

•When inserting the battery be sure not

to press any of the buttons on the

travel alarm as this will interrupt the

WWVB search and may cause the

travel alarm to not pick up the radio-controlled time signal.

•Now replace the battery cover and face the travel alarm with the back of the unit

towards Colorado (this has been found to help the unit pick up the WWVB

signal).

•When the WWVB signal is received a tower icon will appear on the left side of

the LCD display.

NOTE: Due to the nature of the WWVB signal it may take overnight for the travel alarm

to receive the signal and set. Adverse weather conditions may also affect the travel

alarms’ ability to receive the signal. In some cases it may take several nights for the

travel alarm to set.

Figure One

Time Zone and DST (Daylight Saving Time) Setting

You can manually set the time zone and the DST option on your travel alarm by pressing

and holding the “MODE/MIN” button (figure two) on the front of your travel alarm for 4

You can select from four U.S. time zones (Eastern, Central, Mountain and Pacific) on

your travel alarm. The time zones are abbreviated with three letters as follows:

Eastern EST

Central CST

Mountain MST

Pacific PST

You can select whether or not your alarm recognizes the daylight saving time changes

twice a year and automatically changes. Some areas do not change time for daylight

saving time (Arizona and parts of Indiana). The default (factory) setting is daylight

saving time on.

•Press and release the “AL/HR” button to select the

desired time zone.

•The time zone abbreviation will appear in the LCD.

•“DST” will be displayed to the left of the time zone

abbreviation.

•Press and release the “MODE/MIN” button to toggle

between daylight saving time on and off.

•Press and release the “Snooze” button twice to return

the normal display mode or wait 20 seconds and the

travel alarm will time out and automatically return to

the normal display mode.

Display Mode Setting

time. To switch between these two modes press and release the “MODE/MIN” button.

alarm will be suspended for 8 minutes.

Manual Time Setting Option

wait 20 seconds and the travel alarm will automatically return to the normal

display mode.

TROUBLESHOOTING

NOTE: For problems not solved, please contact La Crosse Technology via e-mail or

phone, or visit our website, www.lacrossetechnology.com

Problem: The time and date will not set initially.

Solution: It usually takes overnight before the clock can receive the signal due to the

interference the sun has on the WWVB signal. Wait overnight for the signal.

Solution: Computer monitors and televisions can cause interference with the signal

reception. Please keep the clock at least six feet from electrical sources.

Solution: In some areas of the US, in particular on the East and West coasts, the signal is

very weak. It may take up to 72 hours before a good signal is received. The

reception can be helped by placing the clock in a window facing Colorado,

with the back towards Colorado.

MAINTENANCE AND CARE INSTRUCTIONS

•Extreme temperatures, vibration, and shock should be avoided to prevent damage

to the unit.

•Clean displays and units with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use solvents or scouring

agents; they may mark the displays and casings.

•Do not submerge in water.

•Do not subject the units to unnecessary heat or cold by placing them in the oven

or freezer.

•Opening the casings invalidates the warranty. Do not try to repair the unit.
