6.3 Reception of the DCF frequency signal
• After the reception of the transmitters, the clock will
now scan the DCF frequency signal and the DCF
reception symbol flashes on the display.
• When the time code is successfully received after 3-
10 minutes, the radio-controlled time, the date, day
of the week and the DCF symbol will be shown
steadily on the display.
• You can also activate the DCF reception manually.
Press and hold the -/MIN button for 5 seconds. The
DCF reception symbol flashes.
• The DCF reception always takes place at 1:00, 2:00
and 3:00 o'clock in the morning. If the signal is not
successfully received, further attempts will be taken
at 4:00 and 5:00 o'clock.
• If the clock cannot detect the DCF-signal (e.g. due to
interference, transmitting distance, etc.), the time
can be set manually.
• The clock will then work as a normal quartz clock
(see: “Manual settings”).
Note on radio-controlled time
•
The time is transmitted from an atomic clock near
Frankfurt am Main by a DCF-77 (77.5 kHz) frequency
signal with a range of about 1,500 km. Your radio-
controlled clock receives the signal, converts it and
always shows the exact time. The adjustment of
Daylight Saving Time and Standard Time is also auto-
matic.
• During night-time, the atmospheric interference is
usually less severe. A single daily reception is ade-
quate to keep the accuracy deviation under 1 second.
In extreme cases, please place the unit close to a
window to improve reception.
