GETTING STARTED
1. Remove battery door of main unit and sensor.
2. Insert 3 new AA size batteries to the main unit, and 2 new
AA size to the sensor, matching the polarities “
+ / -
Replace
the battery door.
3. For the main unit, user can plug the DC adaptor to power it.
4. The main unit will automatically receive 433 MHz signal in
8 seconds. And after 5-minute sensor signal test, it will turn
to RC signal reception.
NOTE:
Powered by batteries, display of main unit without backlight is
quite dark, and its backlight lasts for 5 seconds. But powering
by DC adaptor enables long lasting backlight for easy viewing.
HOW TO PAIR MAIN UNIT AND SENSOR
1. Press
[ + / CHANNEL ]
button on main unit to select a channel.
2. On sensor, slide channel switch to corresponding channel.
(For additional sensors, select a different channel). Press
[ RESET ]
button.
3. Press
[ SENSOR ]
on main unit to initiate search for 433 MHz
reception.
WIRELESS SENSOR RECEPTION
If the main unit receives wireless sensor signal successfully,
the signal icon “ ” displays. While if it cannot receive sensor
signal or signal is lost, icon “ ” displays.
MSF SIGNAL RECEPTION (AUTOMATICALLY TIME SET)
The MSF signal is a signal broadcast within 1500 km
(932 miles) of Anthorn, England. This RC clock includes a
built-in receiver which picks up the signal from the MSF
station. Therefore, the clock automatically sets the time,
date and weekday.
The clock automatically carries out four periodic
synchronization procedures (at 2:00 AM, 8:00AM,2:00 PM
and 8:00 PM daily) with the MSF signal to correct any
deviations to the exact time.
Once the unit synchronizes successfully to the MSF signal,
the signal icon “ ” will show up. Each synchronization
process will take between 6 to 16 minutes. When the
reception stops, signal icon displays as “ ”.
To manually start or stop the MSF signal reception, press
[ RCC ]
button.
NOTE:
1. The strength of radio-controlled time signal from the
transmitter tower may be affected by geographical location
or building around.
2. Always place the unit away from interfering sources such
as TV set, computer, etc.
3. Avoid placing the unit on or next to metal plates.
4. Closed areas such as airport, basement, tower block, or
factory are not recommended.

Overview

The Youshiko Model YC9370 is an RC Projection Clock and Weather Station featuring a color-changing display. This device is designed to provide accurate time, weather forecasts, and temperature readings, with the added convenience of a projection feature.

Function Description:

The main unit of the Youshiko YC9370 serves as the central hub for all its functions. It displays the current time, a 12-hour weather forecast, barometer readings (with relative/absolute indicator and unit selection in hPa/inHg/mmHg), a histogram of barometric pressure, indoor and outdoor temperatures, date, month, and day of the week. It also indicates daylight saving time and RC signal reception. The device includes a built-in sensitive pressure sensor to predict weather for the next 12 to 24 hours.

The projection feature allows the user to project the time, indoor temperature, and outdoor temperature onto a dark background from 1 to 4 meters away. The projected image can be reversed, and its quality can be adjusted using the FOCUS knob. The projector can be set to turn on for 5 seconds, 30 minutes, or continuously when powered by a DC adapter.

The clock automatically sets the time, date, and weekday via MSF signal reception. It performs four periodic synchronization procedures daily (at 2:00 AM, 8:00 AM, 2:00 PM, and 8:00 PM) to ensure accuracy. The MSF signal is broadcast within 1500 km (932 miles) of Anthorn, England. The device indicates signal reception status with an icon.

Two independent alarms can be set, with options to turn them on or off. The alarm beeps for 2 minutes and can be snoozed for 5 minutes, with continuous snooze operation possible.

The display backlight offers two color modes:

  1. WEATHER FORECAST: The backlight color changes according to the weather forecast (Red for Sunny, Orange for Partly Cloudy, Green for Cloudy, Blue for Rainy). This mode requires RC reception to be stopped; otherwise, the backlight will be green.
  2. DEMO: The backlight color gradually changes between the available colors.

The device also records maximum and minimum temperatures and barometric readings, along with their timestamps. Users can review these records and clear them individually. It can also display past 24-hour indoor/outdoor/barometric records and their timestamps.

An Ice Alert feature activates when the outdoor temperature falls between -2°C and 3°C (28°F to 37°F), displaying a flashing ice alert icon on the LCD.
