Can I select the time zone? My grandmom doesn't live in US. Can I set up the right time zone of the clock, before set up the alarm?

Well, I think you set the clock to the current time ... I would have someone local set the time (I don't think you can choose an actual zone) or else I would count up the hours. For example, if you want the time for Germany (where I am now) and you live in the US on the East coast, then you add 6 hours. But be careful, you will have to have it changed for daylight savings :((( I would get someone local to set the time for you :)) Hope this helps! Feel free to ask again if u have other questions!

the alarms and clock has am/pm, so basically a 24hr time clock. So, it doesn't matter what time zone, just set the med alarm for the time she should take her pills: 7am, 12n, 9p, etc. Just give her a supply of AA batteries.

You set the time on the clock before setting alarm times. So I would think that you would simply set the current time for your grandmother's location.

I don't have the instructions with me, but to my recollection, you just set the current time in am or pm. Then each pill dispensing time is based on that setting. No time zone is necessary. The time would need to be reset for daylight savings time and back again when it is over.

Click on the "Settings" icon, then scroll down until you see "Date and time" and click on that, and you should find a section that says "Select time zone." "Automatic date and time" will need to be unchecked to set the time zone.

You can set the time you want such as 8:00 am. You hold they'd "delay" button, and set the time on the clock. When you release the delay bottom, the current time is displayed. Hope that helps!

Stevie, the clock is a 24 hour clock that only displays in the 12 hour format. My clock is mounted in my golf cart on the rear view mirror and has operated perfectly from the day I received it. If you want to set it to GMT (or, as in certain quarters like to say, Zulu time) have at it but it will only display one time zone and the date. I have mine set to alternately flash time and date. Oh! and yes the tape provided for mounting is not the greatest...what do you expect at this price?

You need to set your hour offset from GMT. Then set your time. If you look at what time it says when you turn it on you can also just go change your offset until correct time is displayed (without changing your time). This is a way to set it if you are not sure about time offset. IF YOU DO THIS IT WILL HAVE CORRECT TIME AT STARTUP FOR YOUR LOCAL AREA. You do not have to have it on a power source when not in use. I have mine set and when the ignition is off there is no power and when i start up time is spot on local time. So it is not just setting time, the offset must be correct for your geographic location then when clock is set you should have no issues. It took?me a whioe to figure it out so do not feel bad. Directions are lacking much detail. Try www.timetemperature.com/tzus/gmt_united_states.shtml for offset listings.

A bit confused by your question. You can set the alarm to go off in two hours or whatever interval you like. It is an alarm clock.

My answer is to keep trying. I bought the clock for my mother. She loved it and so did I. But setting it was a challenge. We have owned 3 as she did drop it a number of times. Good luck.

it's simple.......you can't!!! the date and time is automatically synchronized with the GPS, the only thing you can do is set the time zone.

You need to set to the proper time zone. For example, if you're in California, set it to -7. If is not set correctly it will reset itself to whatever time zone you have.

Yes. My 90-yr-old mother only wants to hear the date and time. She never uses the alarm function. She presses a button on top to hear date and time.

The best I can explain it to you is that after you set alarm times 1 and 2, be sure to press button #1 again to set your alarm time (for each time) you set the alarm. Go on to #3, make sure you cancel out #3 alarm time, by pressing button number 2 until you get this display( --:-- ) this display will accour after 11:oo pm or 23:00 hours if you are using the 24 hour format. Let me know if this helped you at all. Tom

I didn't realize that you could use 24 hr. time. I cannot figure out how to do it. The instructions that I have do not give any indication that you can change time format. If you do find a way, I'd like to know.

I had to look for a bit. But you need to set the correct time zone. Then it should fix itself. It is in the settings somewhere. Sorry I don't remember the exact menu choices.

As this was a gift, I made a call and asked if there was a problem. Seems everything is fine with the time. She didn't have to change it for DST. It was done for her. I guess it depends on your carrier. Sorry.

You can't set the turn on time. You set the frequency on the left and on time on the right. The turn on time is however long the free is from the time you make any changes. Sorry.

Not really. It is Designed for US only. It is just miles and feets, also doesn't have Europe time zones

I read the Customer Comments first before purchasing and I gambled on it. After getting the watch I also read very carefully of the instruction and I tried not to set ALL immediately and I only set the Time Zone first. Since it is radio controlled so I let the radio to set the time for me. I think it was about an hour or two later the watch set the hands automatically. On the day to Fall Back I did not turn the hands either, instead, I waited until almost 3 a.m. Sunday the radio automatically set the proper time and I did not have to do anything. I really don't remember everything I did, but the "rule" I followed was not to touch on ALL these buttons. Most of us are rather impatient and we want to know it all immediately. When I realized that the Alarm was set at 3 a.m. by the factory I did not rush to change it until I had time to read the instruction and I did just that little. I'm just guessing: If you, Anita, live on the West Coast, why not set your Time Zone to, say, East Coast Time Zone for one day and watch the hands readjust to the East Coast TZ, then a day later change to the Pacific Time Zone and let the radio to adjust the time but don't expect to see the change promptly. Good luck, we have to help each other in this Internet Era Economy. baoedong@yahoo.com
