Batteries

Explanation: Many problems are resolved with fresh batteries of the appropriate

voltage. Many items sent in under warranty, work when tested with fresh batteries.

Batteries manufactured this year will have an expiration date 10 years (or more) in

the future. Battery technology has improved and batteries will maintain voltage

longer in storage. However, the environment the batteries reside in for the 10 years

can deplete the power.

A minimum voltage of 1.48V for each battery is necessary for proper

performance.

La Crosse Technology, Ltd. www.lacrossetechnology.com/support Page 2

Use batteries dated at least six years in advance of the current year. Batteries

dated earlier than six years from now may still work, but may be unstable in

performance.

Good name brand batteries make less noise, which reduces the chance of RF

(radio frequency) interference from the battery compartment.

Atomic Clock Factory Restart

Explanation: The factory restart returns the atomic clock and remote sensor to an

“out-of-the-box” default state and often resolves an issue.

Factory Restart:

1. Remove batteries from atomic clock.

2. Press one of the buttons on the atomic clock at least 20 times to clear all

memory.

3. Verify that the atomic clock is blank before proceeding (there may be lines

painted on the screen that will show when there is no power).

4. Leave clock without power for 15 minutes (very important).

5. Install fresh batteries in the atomic clock.

Atomic clock

Power Requirements

2-AA alkaline batteries may be used.

12-Hour time format

Time can display in 12-hour only

Fahrenheit/Celsius

Use the program menu to switch between Fahrenheit and Celsius.

HI | LO Records

Explanation: The atomic clock shows the daily HI | LO temperature and humidity

records each day starting at midnight (12:00 AM). The atomic clock automatically

resets the HI | LO records at midnight (12:00 AM).

•Press and release the PLUS button to view the HI temperature, than Humidity

record.

•Press and release the MINUS button to view the LO temperature, than Humidity

record.

Dashes, HH.H, LL.L or stuck Indoor Temperature | Humidity

Explanation: These symbols are error messages indication the indoor sensor is

outside of its readable range. For indoor readings, this is generally a power related

issue.

La Crosse Technology, Ltd. www.lacrossetechnology.com/support Page 3

Batteries may be overpowered or underpowered. Remove batteries from the

atomic clock.

Press any button 20 times. Leave the atomic clock unpowered for 1-2 hours.

Install fresh Alkaline batteries with correct polarity.

If the indoor temperature is still shows dashes, HH.H or LL.L, the atomic clock

may need replacement.

Inaccurate Indoor Temperature Reading

Explanation: When the indoor temperature is inaccurate, it is often due to the

location of the display or overpowered/under powered batteries. You can test the

accuracy at you home.

Side-by-side test: Bring the remote sensor in the house and place it next to the

atomic clock for 2 hours.

Compare indoor and remote temperature. The temperature should be within 4

degrees to be within tolerance.

Look for heat sources such as sunlight, door or window frames or reflected heat

or cold near the atomic clock.

Does the clock have a backlight?

No, as this clock is battery operated there is no backlight.

Time is off by hours

Check to see if the WWVB Tower icon appears on the atomic digital clock. If not,

the digital clock has not received a WWVB time signal in the past 24 hours.

Reposition the digital clock with the front or back facing Colorado.

Check that the Time Zone selected correctly reflects your location. Adjust the

time zone in the Program Menu.

Check that the DST indicator is correct for your location (On this clock, please

change the DST setting to OFF unless you live in Arizona). Adjust the DST

indicator in the Program Menu.

Large buildings, metal roofed buildings and buildings or rooms full of electrical

and/or radio equipment make it difficult to receive the WWVB time signal.

Daylight Saving Time

Dependent on your location, position of the clock in your home, and atmospheric

interference, it may take up to 5 nights for the change from Daylight Savings

Time to Standard Time and vice-versa to occur.

Check for a WWVB Tower Icon showing on the atomic digital clock. The tower

icon indicates you have received the WWVB signal from Ft Collins CO in the past

24 hours.

Check that the clock is in the correct Time Zone.

Check whether the DST indicator is ON or OFF. On this clock, please change the

DST setting to OFF unless you live in Arizona.

Check for fresh batteries. Without proper batteries, the antenna will have a

harder time picking up the signal.

Position the digital clock in a window (with the front or back) facing Ft. Collins,

Colorado and leave for up to five nights. If you do not have a window facing this

direction, position the clock near an outside wall and point the unit in this

general direction.

Atomic clock is dim

Explanation: Most atomic clocks have a dark background. Place the atomic clock

at eye level, to determine if it is dim. Atomic clocks that sit in the sunlight can

develop a cloudy film over time.

This is generally a power related issue.

Batteries may be overpowered or underpowered. Remove batteries from atomic

clock.

Press any button 20 times. Leave the atomic clock unpowered for 1-2 hours.

Install fresh alkaline batteries with correct polarity.

Atomic clock has distorted or frozen display

Explanation: On a brand new atomic clock, check for thin plastic film of printed

scratch guard that may be on the screen of the atomic clock. This thin piece of

plastic has printed numbers for store displays. When the batteries are installed, the

“real” numbers show behind the printed scratch guard and create distortion.

With all power removed, the atomic clock should be blank.

La Crosse Technology, Ltd. www.lacrossetechnology.com/support Page 6

If numbers still appear, please check for scratch guard.

Power:

Check that the batteries are installed correctly.

This is generally a power related issue.

Batteries may be overpowered or underpowered.

Remove batteries from atomic clock.

Press any button 20 times. Leave the batteries out of the display for 2 hours.

Insert batteries into the atomic clock.

Atomic clock is blank: No letters, numbers or dashed lines

Check that the batteries are installed correctly.

Batteries may be overpowered or underpowered.

Remove batteries from atomic clock.

Press any button 20 times. Leave the batteries out of the display for 2 hours.

Insert batteries into the atomic clock.

Atomic clock drains batteries quickly

Test a new set of alkaline batteries. Write down the date of installation and the

voltage of the batteries.

When the batteries fail, please note the date and voltage again. This is helpful in

determining the problem.

Check for leaking batteries, which may damage the atomic clock.

Atomic clock has missing segments

Explanation: When parts of numbers, letters, or pictures are missing on the

display, it is often power related.

Batteries may be overpowered or underpowered. Remove batteries from atomic

clock.

Press any button 20 times. Leave the atomic clock unpowered for 1-2 hours.

Install fresh alkaline batteries with correct polarity.
