How does a SkyScan atomic clock work?
The SkyScan® Atomic Clock automatically sets itself to the correct time and date by receiving and decoding the NIST radio signal with an internal receiver. It ensures daily accuracy to the fraction of a second by refreshing the signal each day. Our clocks give you access to the latest technology.
How do I reset my digital atomic clock?
The atomic signal generally takes a few hours to synchronize, so it is important to manually set the time and date after powering on the clock. Press and hold the “SET CLOCK” button, located on the side of the clock, to enter SET MODE. Once in SET MODE the preference you are currently setting will blink on the clock.
How long does it take for an atomic clock to set?
The clock will then search for the atomic signal. If the signal in your area is strong, the clock will set itself within 3-12 minutes. NOTE: Due to solar radiation in the atmosphere, a radio controlled clock signal is weaker during the day.
How long does it take for an atomic clock to reset?
When you turn a radio controlled clock on, it will probably miss the first time code, so it usually takes more than one minute to set itself (sometimes 5 minutes or longer) depending on the signal quality and the receiver design.

What kind of batteries are in a skyscan atomic clock?
Choose the correct setting procedure according to whether your clock is a digital clock, weather station, or standard clock face. Insert two AA, LR6 1.5 volt alkaline batteries in the battery compartment of the clock. Align them in the compartments based on the polarity marked on the clock’s compartment case.
