radio Signal (DcF):
The DCF signal (time signal transmitter) consists
of time pulses emitted by one of the most accurate
clocks in the world close to Frankfurt / Main, Ger-
many – this varies by 1 second in a million years.
Your weather station receives these signals under
ideal conditions up to a distance of approximately
1500 km around Frankfurt / Main. Reception of
the radio signal usually takes about 3 - 10 minutes.

If your weather station is not working correctly,
please perform a new start by pressing the

Reception can be considerably impaired by
obstacles (e.g. concrete walls) or sources of
interference (e.g. other electrical devices). If
necessary, change the location of the radio clock
(e.g. by putting it near a window) if you have
problems with reception.
Operation
Q
DcF radio Signal reception
Q
After the establishment of a connection with the
outdoor sensor the weather station automatically
begins to search for the DCF radio signal. The
search is shown in the LC display by the radio
tower symbol
flashing.

note: During the signal search all of the function
buttons of the weather station are blocked.
note: In buildings made of reinforced concrete
the reception of the radio signal may be severely
impaired (see "Setting up devices").
In order to correct any deviations from the exact
time, the clock is automatically synchronised with
the DCF radio signal every day at 3 a.m. If the
synchronisation with the DCF radio signal fails,
the radio tower symbol
goes off. The clock

then attempts to synchronise with the DCF radio
signal at 4 a.m., 5 a.m. and 6 a.m.
Reception of the DCF radio signal can also be
started manually on the weather station.

Press and hold down the
/
for 3 seconds. The weather station attempts
to receive the DCF radio signal. This process
takes several minutes and is indicated in the LC
display by a flashing radio tower symbol
If the connection with the DCF radio signal cannot
be established, the search is stopped. A further
attempt to establish a connection is made auto-
matically on the next full hour.
note: If the clock of the weather station cannot
receive the DCF radio signal due to errors, too great
a distance from the transmitter or similar reasons,
Before Initial Use / Operation
it is possible to set the time manually. As soon as
the DCF radio signal is successfully received, the
values that have been set manually are overwritten.
