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 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 Moon Phase Clock.  
However, due to the nature of the Earth’s Ionosphere, reception is very limited during  
daylight hours. The Moon Phase Clock 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. This Moon Phase Clock regulates the  
WWVB transmitter. For more information about WWVB please see the NIST website at  
QUICK SET-UP GUIDE  
1) Insert two fresh AA batteries into the moon phase clock.  
2) Wait 10 minutes for WWVB reception.  
3) If there is no WWVB reception, manually set the time and date (see  
instructions in the Program Mode section).  
4) Program the settings.  
5) Mount the WS-8007U in a suitable location where WWVB signals can be  
received.

A) MOON PHASE CLOCK  
1) Remove the battery cover, located on the backside of the moon phase clock  
and directly below the function buttons.  
2) Observe the correct polarity, and install 2 AA batteries.  
3) Replace  
the  
battery  
cover.  
Note: After the batteries have been installed a tone will sound, and all the  
LCD’s (Liquid Crystal Display) will briefly light up. Then the indoor  
temperature, the date as “1/ 1”, the weekday as “MON”, and the Moon  
Phase will be displayed. Also, the time will appear as “-:--” for  
approximately 1 minute. Then the WWVB search is automatically initiated,  
and a tower icon appears and flashes with the time colon (no tower icon  
will appear if the WWVB is too weak to be detected). While the WWVB  
search is being conducted various numbers will appear in the time display.  
The numbers “0”, “1”, or “8” will appear in the hour position and the  
seconds will appear in the minute display. The moon phase clock will either  
display the WWVB time, or discontinue the search after 10 minutes if the  
time is not found. When the search is cancelled “-:--”will appear in the  
time LCD. The moon phase clock will conduct a WWVB search every hour  
until the first signal is found. Once the WWVB time is found, a search is  
automatically conducted nightly at midnight. If the signal is found at  
midnight, the tower icon will remain, if not, another search will take place  
every hour (up to 6:00 am) until the signal is found successfully. If no signal  
is found during this period, the tower icon will not appear and the clock will  
search again at 12:00 am the next night.

MOUNTING  
Hanging Holes  
Function Buttons  
Foldout Table Stands  
There are two possible ways to mount the moon phase clock:  
use of the foldout table stands, or  
wall mounting.  
I) FOLDOUT TABLE STANDS  
The Foldout table stand legs are located on the backside,  
at the lower corners, and on both sides of the battery  
cover. The hinges are towards the edges of the moon  
phase clock, and the ends (with no hinge) need to be  
folded out towards the edge. Once the foldout table  
stands are extended, place the moon phase clock in an  
appropriate location.

15/16 of an inch (100.58mm) three screw  
positions on a wall.  
2) Install three mounting screws (not included) into  
a wall within transmission range—leaving  
approximately 3/16 of an inch (5mm) extended  
from the wall.  
3) Place the moon phase clock onto the screws, using the hanging holes on the  
backside. Gently pull the moon phase clock down to lock the screws into  
place.  
MAINTENANCE & CARE  
Extreme temperatures, vibrations, 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 and damage the displays and casings.  
Do not submerge in water.  
Immediately remove all low powered batteries to avoid leakage and damage.  
Replace with new batteries only, and of recommended size.  
Opening the casings invalidates the warranty. Do not try to repair the units. Contact  
La Crosse Technology for Repairs.
