RADIO CONTROLLED CLOCK:
The RM832A will automatically synchronize current time and date with the
signal broadcast by the US Atomic Clock when the product is in reception
range of the signal. When the unit is new and just out of the box, synchronization
with the U.S. atomic clock can take upto 72 hours. The unit will receive the
most dependable and interference free signal automatically between Midnight
and 4 AM. When the unit is receiving radio signal, the reception icon will start
to blink. The reception icon will show either strong, weak or no signal depending
on the strength of the radio signal. A complete reception generally takes
about 2 to 5 minutes. When the reception is completed the reception icon will
stop blinking. The reception icon will show [I] for no Reception or [MODE]
for successful reception. For best signal reception, place the RM832A away
from other equipment that emit RF or microwave signals such as TV's, radios,
PC's or microwave ovens. Other causes for signal interference include
electrical power transmission towers, steel reinfoced concrete construction,
and/or metal siding. You may need to reposition the clock for maximum
reception. Radio Frequency appliances and radios, such as the Radio
Controlled Alarm Clock, perform best when placed near a window. After
receiving the initial signal, updates are accomplished with greater ease. Even
though there are areas that may have more difficulty in receiving a signal, the
RM832A Alarm Clock contains very accurate quartz movement and will
retain precise time even if a signal is missed on a rare occasion.
The signal strength indicator icon is displayed immediately to the left of the
time display.
