RF connection to the outdoor sensor

•Press and hold the key "ALARM" for 3 seconds to search for the outdoor sensor. The RF

signal symbol on the display in the OUR area will flash whole the signal is searched. The

RF reception is more problematic in rooms with concrete walls (e.g. in the basement) and

in office buildings (interface from electronic equipment like TV, PC, Mobile Phone, Office

Lights etc.). The transmission distance will be shorter in such cases. For extreme cases,

please put the main unit closer to the window and away from any potential interference.

Reception of radio controlled signal

•DCF77 radio signal search starts automatically about 3 minutes after battery exchange.

The “radio tower” signal is flashing.

•Press“+“,“-“for more than 3 seconds to enter or quit the Radio controlled signal reception

•The clock synchronizes with the DCF77 radio signal automatically and daily from AM 1:00

to 3:00 to correct potential time deviations each hour. If the synchronization is

unsuccessful (“radio tower“ symbol disappears), a further synchronization attempt is made

from 4:00 and 5:00 until success. This process is repeated up until 5:00 AM. If still not

success, daily reception stop.

INFORMATION:

•Flashing “radio tower” symbol stands for DCF77 radio signal reception started.

•Continuous “radio tower” symbol stands for DCF77 radio signal reception successful.

•Please observe a minimal distance of 2,5 m to sources of interference such as televisions

or computer screens.

•The radio signal is weaker in rooms with concrete walls (e.g. in the basement) and in office

buildings. For extreme cases, please put the main unit near a window.

•There are less atmospheric disturbances at night. A radio time signal reception is usually

possible at that time. One synchronization per day is sufficient to keep the time display

accuracy at 1 second.

TIP:

You can adjust the time manually in case the clock cannot receive the DCF77 radio signal

(due to interferences, large distance to the sender, obstructions like mountains, etc.) As soon

as the radio signal can be received, the clock will be adjusted automatically.

Radio signal sender coverage up to 1500 m distance to Frankfurt/Main.
