ABOUT WWVB (Radio Controlled Time)  
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 Weather Station. However, due to the  
nature of the Earth’s Ionosphere, reception is very limited during daylight hours. The Weather  
Station 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. For more information on the  
atomic clock and WWVB please see the NIST website at

QUICK SET-UP GUIDE  
Hint: Use good quality Alkaline Batteries and avoid rechargeable batteries.  
INVENTORY OF CONTENTS  
1. Have the Wireless Weather Station and remote temperature sensor 3 to 5 feet apart.  
2. Batteries should be out of both units for 10 minutes.  
3. Place the batteries into the remote temperature sensor first then into the indoor  
weather station.  
(All remote temperature sensors must be started before the Wireless Weather Station)  
4. DO NOT PRESS ANY BUTTONS FOR 15 MINUTES.  
1. The Wireless Weather Station/ (Figure 1).  
2. One remote temperature sensor with mounting bracket (Figure 2).  
3. Two each, ½” Philips screws.  
4. Instruction manual and warranty card.  
Figure 1  
In this time the Wireless Weather Station and remote temperature sensor will start to talk to each  
other and the display will show both the indoor temperature and humidity, and an outdoor  
temperature. If the Wireless Weather Station does not display both temperatures after the 15  
minutes please retry the set up as stated above. After both indoor and outdoor temperatures are  
displayed for 15 minutes you can place your remote temperature sensor outdoor and set your  
time.

The remote temperature sensor should be placed in a dry, shaded area. The temperature  
sensor has a range of 330 feet. Keep in mind that the 330 feet is in open air with no  
obstructions and that radio waves DO NOT curve around objects. Actual transmission range will  
vary depending on what is in the path of the signal. Each obstruction (roof, walls, floors,  
ceilings, thick trees, etc.) will effectively cut signal range in half.

Example: A Wireless Weather Station with a 330 feet range is mounted on an interior wall, so  
that the signal has to pass through one interior wall, one exterior wall, and across the 10 feet  
width of the room between the 2 walls. The first wall will reduce the range to 165 feet, and the  
second wall will reduce the range to 87 feet. Factoring in the 10 foot room, this leaves a  
maximum of 77 feet of remaining signal range.  
Figure 2  
This allowance is typically enough for a frame wall with non-metallic siding; however certain  
materials can reduce range even further. Metal siding, stucco, and some types of glass can  
reduce signal range by as much as ¾ or more, compared to the ½ reduction typical of most  
obstructions. It is possible to receive a signal through these materials, however maximum range  
will be much less due to their tendency to absorb or reflect a much larger portion of the sensor’s  
signal.  
ADDITIONAL EQUIPMENT (not included)  
1. Two fresh AA 1.5V Alkaline batteries for the Wireless Weather Station.  
2. Two fresh AA 1.5V Alkaline batteries for the remote temperature sensor.  
3. One, Philips screwdriver for mounting.

TIME SETTING  
There are two methods by which the time and date can be set:  
A) Automatically via WWVB reception, or  
B) Manually.  
8. Press and release the IN button to advance the month.  
9. Press and release the OUT button to advance the day.  
10. Press and release the SET button to confirm and advance to the snooze  
setting.  
A. WWVB (Remote Control Time)  
This method requires you to do nothing, except wait for the signal to be received, and to select a  
time zone. Reception usually takes approximately 10 minutes during optimal conditions. The  
best condition for reception is at night, between midnight and 6:00 am—when there is less  
atmospheric interference. To keep your time as accurate as possible, Wireless Weather Station  
conducts a WWVB search every night between these hours, and overrides any manually set  
time. The WWVB tower icon (appearing in the TIME LCD) will flash when a signal-search is in  
progress and a signal is being received, and will remain steady when the signal has been  
received. If the WWVB time has not been received after 10 minutes of battery installation, you  
may manually set the time or leave the time function alone (reception will occur regardless).  
After a successful reception, no more reception attempt would be made until the following day.

There are 3 possible weather icons that will be displayed in the FORECAST  
LCD:  
Sunny—indicates that the weather is expected to improve (not that the  
weather will be sunny).  
Sun with Clouds—indicates that the weather is expected to be fair (not that  
the weather will be sunny with clouds).  
Clouds with Rain—indicates that the weather is expected to get worse (not  
that the weather will be rainy).  
5. Press and release the IN button to select the forecast sensitivity  
6. Press and release the SET button to confirm the forecast sensitivity and  
complete the programming.  
These icons indicate the expected weather change in the next 12 to 24  
hours. The icon does not give an exact prediction of the weather, however it  
should be viewed as a generalization of the expected weather change (for  
example a “sunny” icon indicates the weather is expected to improve).  
FEATURES OF THE WS-9228U-IT  
WWVB Tower Icon (indicates time  
reception)  
The weather icons change when the unit detects a change in air pressure.  
The icons change in order, from “sunny” to “partly sunny” to “cloudy” or the  
reverse. It will not change from “sunny” directly to “rainy”, although it is  
possible for the change to occur quickly. If the symbols do not change then  
the weather has not changed, or the change has been slow and gradual.  
B. WEATHER TENDENCY ARROWS  
Other possible displays in the FORECAST LCD are 2 weather tendency  
arrows, one that points up (on the left side of the LCD) and one that points  
down (on the right side of the LCD). These arrows reflect current changes  
in the air pressure. An arrow pointing up indicates that the air pressure is  
increasing and the weather is expected to improve or remain good, an arrow  
pointing down indicates that the air pressure is decreasing and the weather  
is expected to become worse or remain poor.  
Weather Tendency Arrow

II. INDOOR TEMPERATURE, HUMIDITY, AND COMFORT LEVEL INDICATOR  
The current indoor temperature (viewed on the left) and relative humidity (viewed on  
the right) are displayed in the INDOOR LCD. The comfort level indicator is located at  
the center of the INDOOR LCD. The indicator will display a happy face icon when the  
temperature is between 68F and 79F (20C and 25.9C), and the humidity is  
between 45% and 65%. A sad face icon will be displayed when the temperature and  
humidity are outside the mentioned ranges.  
Remote Sensor Number  
(Up to 3 Total)  
I. WEATHER FORECAST  
The weather forecasting feature is estimated to be 75% accurate and is for the next 12  
to 24 hours. The weather forecast is based solely upon the change of air pressure  
over time. The WS-7U-IT averages past air-pressure readings to provide an accurate  
forecast—creating a necessity to disregard all weather forecasting for 12-24 hours  
after the unit has been set-up, reset, or moved from one altitude to another (i.e. from  
one floor of a building to another floor). In areas where the weather is not largely  
affected by the change of air pressure, the sensitivity setting should be set to 1.  
III. OUTDOOR TEMPERATURE AND HUMIDITY  
The temperature received from the remote temperature sensor is viewed in the  
OUTDOOR LCD. When there is more than one remote temperature sensor unit in  
operation, a “boxed” number will appear to between the outdoor temperature and  
humidity data. This indicates which remote temperature sensor unit (1, 2, or 3) is  
currently displaying its data in the OUTDOOR LCD. (This feature is explained in  
further detail in section VAdding Remote Temperature Sensors).

2. All the Outdoor records (minimum and maximum) will be reset after the  
OUT button is pressed and held for 5 seconds.  
VI. ADDING REMOTE TEMPERATURE SENSORS (OPTIONAL)  
The WS-9228U-IT is able to receive signals from 2 additional temperature sensors.  
The following are instructions for the set-up of temperature sensor units with the WS-  
9228U-IT. These extra sensors can be purchased through the same dealer as this  
unit.  
1. Remove all the batteries from the receiver and sensor(s) and wait 60 seconds.  
During these 60 seconds, press any button 20 times to discharge any excess  
power.  
2. Insert the batteries to the first temperature sensor.  
3. Within 30 seconds of powering up the first sensor, insert the batteries to the  
Weather Station. Once the batteries are in place, all segments of the LCD will  
light up briefly. Following the indoor temperature and indoor humidity, time as  
12:00, calendar, and weather icons will be displayed. If they are not shown in  
13  
14  
LCD after 60 seconds, remove the batteries and wait for at least 60 seconds  
before reinserting them.  
4. The outdoor temperature from the first sensor (channel 1) should then be  
displayed on the Weather station. If this does not happen and the signal  
reception icon is not shown, after 2 minutes, the batteries will need to be  
removed from both units and reset from step 1.  
5. Insert the batteries to the second sensor as soon as the outdoor temperature  
readings from the first sensor are displayed on the Weather station.  
NOTE: You must insert the batteries into the second sensor within 10  
seconds of reception of the first sensor.  
data. To achieve a true temperature reading, avoid mounting where direct sunlight can  
reach the remote temperature sensor or Wireless Weather Station. While the remote  
temperature sensor is weather proof, avoid submersion in water or snow. We  
recommend that you mount the remote temperature sensor on an outside North-facing  
wall. The sending range is 330ft—obstacles such as walls, concrete, and large metal  
objects can reduce the range. Place both units in their desired location, and wait  
approximately 15 minutes before permanently mounting to ensure that there is proper  
reception. The Wireless Weather Station should display a temperature in the  
OUTDOOR LCD within 4 minutes of setting up.  
I. THE REMOTE TEMPERATURE SENSOR  
6. The outdoor temperature from the second sensor and the "channel 2" icon  
should then be displayed on the Weather Station. If this does not happen after 2  
minute, the batteries will need to be removed from all the units and reset from  
step 1.  
7. Insert the batteries to the third sensor as soon as the "channel 2" icon and  
outdoor data are displayed on the Weather Station. Then within 2 minutes, the  
channel 3 outdoor data from the third sensor will be displayed and the channel  
icon will shift back to "1" once the third sensor is successfully received. If this is  
not happen, user shall restart the setting up from step 1.  
A. MOUNTING WITH SCREWS  
1) Remove the mounting bracket from the remote temperature  
sensor.  
2) Place the mounting bracket over the desired location.  
3) Through the three screw holes of the bracket, mark the  
mounting surface with a pencil.  
4) Screw mounting bracket onto the mounting surface. Ensure  
that the screws are flush with the bracket.  
NOTE: You must insert the batteries into the third sensor within 10  
seconds of reception of the second sensor.  
5) Insert the remote temperature sensor into the bracket.  
IMPORTANT: Transmission problems will arise if the setting for multiple  
sensors is not followed as described above. Should transmission problems  
occur, it is necessary to remove the batteries from all units and start again  
the set-up from step 1.  
B. MOUNTING WITH ADHESIVE TAPE  
1) With a nonabrasive solution, clean and dry the back of the  
mounting bracket and the mounting surface to ensure a  
secure hold. The mounting surface should be smooth and  
flat.  
2) Remove the protective strip from one side of the tape.  
3) Adhere the tape to the designated area on the back of the  
mounting bracket.  
4) Remove the protective strip from the other side of the tape.  
5) Position the remote temperature sensor in the desired  
location, ensuring that the Wireless Weather Station can  
receive the signal.  
VII. VIEWING AND OPERATING WITH MULTIPLE REMOTE TEMPERATURE  
SENSOR UNITS  
1. To view the temperature of a different remote temperature sensor unit,  
press and release the CH button. A shift from one “boxed” number to the  
next should be observed in the OUTDOOR LCD.  
2. To view the Minimum/Maximum temperature and humidity: first select which  
remote temperature sensor to read data from (indicated by the “boxed”  
number), then press the OUT button. Pressing this button once will display  
the minimum temperature and humidity, and the date and time the data was  
recorded. Pressing this button a second time (while “MIN” is still displayed,  
otherwise press the button twice) will display the same data for the  
maximum recordings.  
Note: Mounting with adhesive tape is not recommended as a permanent mounting solution.  
Only use the adhesive tape during set-up process.  
II. THE WIRELESS WEATHER STATION  
6. To reset the Minimum/Maximum readings, it is necessary to select which  
remote temperature sensor you wish to reset. Press and hold the OUT  
button for 5 seconds, the records for the selected remote temperature  
sensor unit will be reset.  
The Wireless Weather Station can be mounted in two ways:  
with the table stand or,  
on the wall with the use of a wall hanging screw (not included).  
MOUNTING  
A. USING THE TABLE STAND  
Note: Before permanently mounting ensure that the Wireless Weather Station is able  
to receive WWVB signals from the desired location. Also, extreme and sudden  
changes in temperature will decrease the accuracy of the Wireless Weather Station,  
and changes in elevation will result with inaccurate weather forecasting for the next 12  
to 24 hours. These changes will require a 12 to 24 hour wait before obtaining reliable  
The Wireless Weather Station comes with the table stand. If you  
wish to use the table-stand all that is required is to place the  
Wireless Weather Station in an appropriate location.  
15  
16  
 
the case can act as a heat sink to absorb and store heat from external sources (i.e.  
handling of the case or radiant heat). Also, the much greater range of the outdoor  
temperature sensor requires a different calibration curve than the indoor range. Error  
is usually greater at the extreme ends of a range, making it harder to compare  
different ranges with different curves. Under non-laboratory conditions, it is difficult to  
compensate for the above factors and obtain an accurate comparison.  
B. WALL MOUNTING  
1) Remove the table-stand. To do this, pull down on the stand  
from the rear and rotate forward.  
2) Fix a screw (not included) into the desired wall, leaving  
approximately 3/16 of an inch (5mm) extended from the wall.  
3) Place the Wireless Weather Station onto the screw using the  
hanging hole on the backside.  
4) Gently pull the Wireless Weather Station down to lock the  
screw into place.  
MAINTENANCE AND CARE INSTRUCTIONS  
Extreme temperatures, vibration, and shock should be avoided to prevent  
damage to the units.  
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.  
Immediately remove all low powered batteries to avoid leakage and damage.  
Opening the casings invalidates the warranty. Do not try to repair the unit.

Remote Temperature Sensor:  
Problem: Temperatures do not match if units are placed next to each other.  
Solution: Each temperature sensor is manufactured to be accurate to within 2ºF plus or minus  
and under normal conditions, so two sensors could be as much as 4ºF different.  
However, the difference can be exaggerated further because the sensors are  
designed for different working environments. The indoor sensor is less responsive to  
ambient air currents because of the shielding effect of the display's case. In addition,
