E. DST (DAYLIGHT SAVING TIME) SETTING
Note: The DST default is "On", meaning that the WWVB will automatically change the time ac-
cording to Daylight Saving Time in the spring and fall. For areas that do not recognize DST

B. RADIO-CONTROLLED TIME
1. The projection alarm will automatically search for the time signal upon initial set-up and every
night.
2. When the signal is being received, there will be a "tower" icon flashing to the left of the time
display.
3. When the time signal has been received successfully, the tower icon will remain steady until
midnight.
4. 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 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 projection alarm.
5. Due to the nature of the Earth's Ionosphere, reception is very limited during daylight hours. The
projection alarm will search for a signal every night when reception is best.
6. The WWVB radio station receives the time data from the NIST Atomic clock in Boulder, Colorado.
A team of atomic physicists is continually measuring every second, of every day, to an accu-
racy 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.

changes (Arizona and parts of Indiana) turn the DST "OFF".
1. Hold down the "SET/SEL/MIN" button for 3 seconds, the time will flash in the Time LCD.
2. Press and release the "SNOOZE" button twice to advance to the DST setting.
3. "DST" will appear in the indoor temperature/humidity LCD and "ON" or "OFF" will flash in the
time LCD.
4. Press and release the "SET/SEL/MIN" button to toggle between DST ON and OFF.
5. Press and release the "SNOOZE" button to confirm the DST setting and complete the set-up
sequence.
IV. FEATURES & OPERATIONS
A. FEATURES
1. Radio-controlled time
2. Projection of time and/or remote temperature
3. LED backlight
4. Display of indoor temperature/humidity or alarm time
5. Indoor temperature and humidity
6. Remote outdoor temperature
7. Time alarm
the minute in "Coordinated Universal Time", which is also known as Greenwich Mean Time
(GMT). This time does not follow Daylight Saving Time changes. After the top of the minute, a
tone will sound for every second.
8. It is possible that your projection alarm may not be exactly on the second due to the variance in
the quartz. However, the clock will adjust the quartz timing over the course of several days to be
very accurate; under 0.10 seconds per day.
C. PROJECTION OF TIME AND/OR REMOTE TEMPERATURE
1. When plugged into an AC outlet, the projection alarm can continuously project the time and
remote 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 projection will auto-focus for display from three to six feet away. A dark surrounding will be
necessary to clearly see the projection.
4. The projection alarm will toggle between the time and outdoor temperature when projecting;
either when the "SNOOZE" button is pressed or continuously when using the AC adaptor.
5. The direction of the display can also be rotated 360˚ in 90˚ increments by pressing the direc-
tional button. There is no display on the LCD that signifies the direction.
6. The projector case can be rotated 180˚ to further help orient the projected display.
