Clicking 'ALARM SET' a final time takes you back to normal viewing mode. Click 'ALARM SET' once more to reach Alarm 2. Clicking the arrow buttons allows you to move in 1-minute increments, and holding the arrow buttons allows you to quickly scroll in 10-minute increments. You will now be able to use the up and down arrow buttons to set Alarm 1 time. To set the time for Alarm 1 or Alarm 2, press and hold the 'ALARM SET' button. When you're viewing any city's weather forecast, clicking the 'ALARM SET' button will have no effect (the clock is designed so that your alarm cannot be changed accidentally). If your alarm clock does display incorrect information, it does not mean that the device is broken - most data problems can be fixed automatically by simply letting the device receive its next update.
#Brookstone weather watcher update#
If the device is getting good reception, it will update frequently and with the correct weather information.
To solve either of these problems, find a location in which your alarm clock displays two or three bars indicating signal strength. Reception problems can also cause 'lagging,' a condition in which your device's current temperature readings are consistently slow to update. Check the signal strength indicator in the top right corner of the screen - if you are getting zero or ones bars, the device may be processing updates incorrectly, or missing them altogether. If your alarm clock is showing incorrect city labels, incomplete or incorrect weather updates, or has missing data for some cities, the device may not be getting good reception. List of Cities Inaccurate or Incomplete Weather Data
To look up the forecast locations that your alarm clock displays, check our list of cities online. Once your WeatherCast has begun receiving updates, you can toggle through over 150 locations by pressing the right and left arrow buttons on the top face of the device. Using a paper clip, press this button to change the time by increments of one hour. If your clock is off by a number of hours after startup, find the 'TIMEZONE' button inside the battery door of the clock radio. In this case, please contact our Customer Support team so that Ambient can investigate the problem. If your location is covered but your device has been powered on for 24 hours without receiving any updates, OR if your device used to work but is no longer updating, there may be a problem with your local signal tower. This will ensure that your device updates frequently. If your location is covered on our coverage maps, try moving the device around your home or office (a window is often the best place for the alarm clock) until you get two or three signal strength bars.
If you have zero or one bars, your device may not be getting strong enough reception to get weather updates. If this occurs, check to see how many bars of signal strength appear next to the word 'ambient' in the top right corner of the screen. However, if the device does not have strong enough reception to get an update, you'll see the words 'NO COVERAGE' in the top right corner of the screen. If your alarm clock is within range of Ambient's network, it should receive an update with weather and time information within the first several hours of operation. Try replacing the batteries - you should immediately see the device 'testing' different parts of the screen, even before you have weather or clock data. If you've put AA batteries into your alarm clock and you still don't see any numbers or moving segments on the screen, the device has not powered up.
