Oregon scientific instructions

Works great except that the time defaults to Pacific and I'm in the Rocky Mountain time zone. I've tried pushing set clock and then the -/+ button but it flashed 12 hr or 24 hr and then gets all wonky with a bunch of gibberish. Can you help me? Thanks!

Which model Oregon Scientific do you have? There are a couple that you need to set the time zone with a switch on the back of the unit. For the BAR388HGA-BK, you press and hold Mode for 2 seconds until it goes into the setting mode. Then you can use the up/down arrows to cycle through the Time Zone options. (1 is Pacific, 4 is Mountain). Press Mode again to confirm the setting and advance to the next item to change. You will leave the Set mode if you do not press a button for several seconds. If you just press and release the Mode button, then you can set the time display option.

A number of Oregon Scientific product manuals are available here:
Technical Support , http://www.oregonscientific.com/us/en/service/support . Scroll down and see the drop-down menu on the right.

I hope this helps.

Silicon scientific atomic watch

Press either top or bottom right to adjust offset hour to correspond with your time zone. Eastern -5, central -6, mountain -7, pacific -8. These are negative numbers, not positive. Then press top left button once, then press bottom left button to return to time display.

Need a user manual for skyscan model 31420e atom travel clock

Late to the party I guess. Lots of entries for setting the clock, but not for the alarm. Press the plus or minus button. That's it. After you have the time set, you can then press the ALARM button above the WAVE/SET button to turn it on.

My oregon scientific projector clock keeps changing time, I think it might be something to do with the time zone. I do not know what a time zone is?

A time zone is section of the country that adjusts for daylight savings time. The United States is composed of four time zones - Eastern, Central, Mountain, and Pacific. Each county is assigned to one of the four time zones. See the attached map to see which time zone you are in. Then you must set up your clock to match that time zone. bblue1967191.jpg

Sentry self setting atomic clock lost the instructions

Select The Time Zone - For Sentry Self-setting Atomic Clock (ATC - 10)
The default time zone is Pacific zone.
1. In the normal time mode, press the MODE key to enter the alarm time mode.
2. Press the SET key to change the time zone.
each press of the SET key will move the time zone back one hour
P= Pacific M=Mountain C=Central E=Eastern
3. Press MODE key when correct Time Zone is highlighted.

I think the Instructions may tell you to use the ADJUST key instead of the SET key.
ADJUST key does not work for TIME ZONE change, SET key works.
This will set your clock to your chosen Time Zone for normal time.
Instructions for the ATC20 are located at the following url

Changing the time

you can go to http://www2.oregonscientific.com/assets/manuals2/bar338pa.pdf to see or print the user's manual.

If you don't want to get the manual, here's what you do to fix it. . . . .
*note: you need to do this anytime you change the batteries.

1) open the battery cover
2) on the left side you'll see 3 little buttons labeled a)zone, b)C/F c)reset
3) push the reset
4)push the zone button until your time zone is highlighted on the front display
5) look at the front display & if you see a blinking "radio signal" icon at upper left of time numerals
don't do anything else. The time, date, etc. will automatically synchronize your clock with the US Atomic Clock. This could take up to 10 minutes. As long as the "radio signal" icon is blinking, it's working on it. When the icon doesnt' blink, it's set. Cool, huh?
6) if the area you live in can't receive the signal from the Atomic Clock, instead of a blinking "radio signal", you'll see just a bare antennae. Since you probably set your clock manually, that's what it shows now before you do anything.
7) after you push reset & set the time zone do NOT touch any other buttons to set anything!!! (I know it's difficult to leave things alone, but just sit on your hands). Pushing the "clock" button or the up & down arrows will stop the radio signal & change to manual functions. Look at the signal icon mentioned in 5) and 6) above. If you only have the bare antennae icon. . . . . go ahead & set the time/date yourself. You have no signal.

Enjoy your clock!

My G-shock wavecepter is 1 hour fast. I can't seem to get it to set to the proper time. I live in Oregon on in the Pacific Time zone. My watch is set to LAX. DLS is off and when I tried it on it jump to 2...

This url (below) has a REAL manual for your watch, not the worthless one that comes with the unit.

http://world.casio.com/wat/download/en/manual/

You can type in your 4 digit module number and get a great document that tells you how to operate your unit and some of how it works. (Adobe Acrobat - PDF file)

The solution involves holding down the adjust button until the time zone starts flashing, adjusting with the right 2 buttons and pushing the mode button to get to other options. You then finish by pushing the adjust button again.

Hope that helps. :-)
