Performing a function test:
After powering up the units, the base station has to synchronize to the sensors before the weather data can be received.
The synchronization mode lasts for 15 minutes. Pressing the MIN/MAX key at any time will send the base station into the
WWVB radio controlled time reception mode. Under normal conditions the radio controlled time is usually received within 3-
5 minutes before returning to the normal operation. During the synchronization mode, perform the following function test to
