The Ferrari Collection from Oregon Scientific reflects the glamour, excitement, and tradition of Formula One motor racing. The instruments in the Ferrari Collection's Speedometer Line are named after some of Ferrari's best-known road cars. These instruments feature round, dashboard-like displays trimmed in chrome to evoke the ambience of the classic sports and GT cars that have made Ferrari an automotive legend. The FSP301A-K Maranello Atomic Projection Alarm Clock has a silver case with a black front, a silver base, and a silver projection arm. The case front has the checkered appearance of carbon fiber, a major component in today's racecar construction. The projection arm and base are silver. The display is surrounded by a red and black "dial" that mimics a tachometer. On the top and front of the case are the 6 chrome buttons that control most of this clock's functions.

• Stores maximum and minimum temperatures--both indoor and for all remotes in use--until reset. These can be displayed at the push of a button.
• Provides temperature trend indications (rising, steady, or falling) .
• Provides accurate weather forecasts (with four different graphical icons) based on air pressure changes.
• Projects both the time and the Ferrari prancing horse logo.
• Has a single daily alarm with an 8-minute snooze function.

The top half of the Maranello's LCD panel displays the weather information. This includes the temperature, a temperature trend arrow, and a forecast icon. The temperature display is user-selectable for  °F or °C. Pressing the Channel button on the top of the clock cycles the temperature display between indoor temperature and the outdoor temperatures from all associated remotes in use (these are designated Channel 1, 2, and 3). The channel number for the selected remote is displayed, and a radio wave icon above the channel number indicates RF reception from the remote. If desired, you can activate an auto-scan mode that automatically changes the channel every 3 seconds.

One THR238NF wireless remote temperature sensor is included with the Maranello, which can actually monitor up to three of these sensors. The THR238NF remote is black in color, and it has its own LCD display that shows the temperature locally. Additional sensors can be obtained separately.

The lower half of the Maranello's LCD panel displays the time and date information on two lines. During normal operation, the top line shows the current time as hour and minutes. You can select either 12-hour or 24-hour time for this display during clock setup. And, during normal operation, you can select either seconds or weekday to be displayed along with hour and minutes. You do this simply by pressing the Clock button on the front panel.  The weekday abbreviation is selectable for any of five languages: English, French, German, Italian, or Spanish.

The bottom line of the time and date display shows the date in your choice of month-day or day-month format. As an alternative, you can display alarm information. If the alarm is set, an alarm icon appears to the left of the date. Additional information (such as time zone) temporarily appears in the clock's displays during clock setup, and this is explained in the user manual.

A special feature of the Maranello projection clock is its choice of alarm sounds for the single daily alarm. You can select either a conventional 2-minute crescendo alarm (a series of increasingly loud beeps) or a racing mode alarm. This is the sound of an actual Ferrari F1 racecar accelerating through the gears and then backing off, and it repeats several times. Like the crescendo alarm, it ceases after about 2 minutes if you don't press the Alarm or Snooze/Light button to stop it.

The image projected by the Maranello is the current time plus the Ferrari prancing horse logo. If you want continuous projection, you must power the Maranello from the included ac adapter. Otherwise, the clock can be powered from batteries, in which case you press the Snooze/Light button to turn on both the projected display and the LCD display's bright blue HiGlo™ electro-luminescent backlight for 5 seconds.

The Maranello's projection arm tilts a full 180° so that the image can be projected not only upward but also to the front or back as desired. Two knobs and a button on the back of the projection arm allow for additional image control. One knob lets you rotate the image180° so that it can be right side up, upside down, or anywhere in between. If you want to flip the image 180° from its current orientation, the button lets you do this instantly without having to use the rotation knob. The second knob focuses the image for maximum sharpness.

The Maranello features a bright, pushbutton-activated HiGlo^TM electro-luminescent backlight with auto-off for its LCD panel. The backlight comes on when you push the Snooze/Light button on the top of the main unit and also when the alarm sounds.

The FSP301A-K main unit is designed to rest on a shelf, desk, table, or other flat surface. It cannot be wall-mounted. The THR238NF remote temperature sensor has its own wall-mounting bracket, or you can install the included wire stand and place the remote on a flat surface.

The main unit uses three AA (1.5V) alkaline batteries, and the remote sensor uses two AA alkaline batteries. All batteries are included. Be sure to install the batteries in the remote before installing them in the main unit. This will ensure that the remote registers properly with the main unit. If you want to use the remote in sub-freezing conditions, we recommend that you replace its AA alkaline batteries with lithium batteries. Lithium cells retain their power down to about -40°F (-40°C).

While the carbon fiber black front panel of this version of the Maranello captures the spirit of Ferrari's current F1 racecar technology, the station's round instrument-like display has the classic look that has graced Ferrari road car dashboards for decades.

• It's wireless! Easy setup with no cables to string--remote sensors send temperature and humidity data back to the main unit (base station) via 433MHz radio waves.
