you can use the time zone setting to set the weather station to the current time in your country.
There are three different reception symbols:
◦flashing – reception is active
◦solid – reception is very good
◦no symbol – no reception / set the clock manually
The time base for the radio controlled time is a Cesium Atomic Clock operated by the Physikalisch
Technische Bundesanstalt Braunschweig which has a time deviation of less than one second in one million
years. The time is coded and transmitted from Mainflingen near Frankfurt via frequency signal DCF 77 (77.5
kHz) and has a transmitting range of approximately 1,500 km. Your radio controlled temperature station
receives this signal and converts it to show the precise time in summer or wintertime. The quality of the
reception depends greatly on the geographic location. In normal cases, there should be no reception problems
within a 1500km radius of Frankfurt.
Therefore, please note the following steps:
•Recommended distance to any interfering sources like computer monitors or TV sets is a minimum
of 1.5 2 meters.
•Within ferro concrete rooms (basements, superstructures), the received signal is naturally weakened.
In extreme cases, please place the unit close to a window and/ or point its front or back towards the
Frankfurt transmitter.
•During nighttime, the atmospheric disturbances are usually less severe and reception is possible in
most cases. A single daily reception is adequate to keep the accuracy deviation below 1 second.
O ERATION
Setting time, time format, temperature unit and time zone
•Press and hold button RCC / SET to enter time setting mode. Digits of hours starts to blink.
•Press buttons MEM / ▼ or CH / ▲ to decrease or increase hours.
•Press button RCC / SET to confirm and enter next setting in sequence minutes – time format –
temperature unit – time zone. Press buttons MEM / ▼ or CH / ▲ to adjust it.
Additional outdoor transmitters
•For having more than one external transmitter, select different channels for each sensor with the
switch 1 2 3 in battery compartment of each sensor.
•If you have installed more than one transmitter, press button CH / ▲ to toggle between transmitters
CH1, CH2, CH3 or loop display (interval 5 seconds).
Manual transmitter search
•Hold button CH / ▲ for 3 seconds. All wireless records will be cleared and LCD will display “–.
–”. The base station tries to receive the measured values for 3 minutes.
•You can initiate transmittion manually by pressing the TX button in battery compartment of sensor.
Maximum and minimum values
•Press button MEM / ▼ to show the maximum (MAX) values of temperature and humidity. Press the
button MEM / ▼ again to show minimum (MIN) values.
•If you press and hold the button MEM / ▼ for 3 seconds, the maximum and minimum values are
deleted and reset to the actual value.
Frost alert
•If the outdoor temperature drops to value ≤ 3 °C, the frost warning alert [A 15] on display appears.
Mold alert
•If the indoor humidity drops to value ≥ 70%, the mold warning alert [A 17] on display appears.
Ventilation recommendation
•Based on the outdoor and indoor humidity values, the station recommends opening the window or
