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 at the outside area will flash when trying to connect. The RF
reception is weaker in rooms with concrete walls (e.g. in the basement) and in office
buildings. The distance will be shortened if you have interference. For extreme cases,
please put the main unit near a window
RECEPTION OF THE RADIO CONTROLLED SIGNAL
•
The DCF radio signal search starts automatically about 3 minutes after battery
exchange. The "radio tower" signal is flashing.
Press "UP"
"DOWN" for more than 3 seconds to enter or quit the Radio controlled

and
signal reception
•
The clock synchronizes with the DCF 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
The flashing "radio tower" symbol stands for DCF radio signal reception started.
•
The continuous "radio tower" symbol stands for DCF 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 synchronisation 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 DCF 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 1500km distance to Frankfurt/Main.
