The weather station will start to make a connection to the outdoor remote sensor.
This operation takes about 3 minutes and is displayed by a flashing reception RF
icon “
in the Remote Sensor” display area on the receiver.
Once the weather station has created a connection to the outdoor sensor the clock
will start automatically searching for the WWVB Signal to set the time and date. The
radio mast icon
will flash showing it is searching for signal, it may take up to 7
minutes to search.
2.2 Notes for Customer before Use
