There are three different reception symbols:
flashing - reception is active
stays - reception is very good
no symbol - no reception / time is manually set
PRIMAVERA - Wireless weather station
- If the clock cannot detect the DCF-signal (for example due to disturbances, transmitting distance, etc.), the time can be set manually. The DCF symbol disappears and the clock will then work as a normal quartz clock. (see: Manual settings).
6.3.1 Note for radio-controlled time DCF
The time base for the radio-controlled time is a caesium atomic clock operated by the Physikalisch Technische Bundesanstalt Braunschweig. It 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 clock receives this signal and converts it to show the precise time. Changeover from summer time or winter time is automatic. In Daylight Saving Time "DST" is shown on the LCD. The quality of the reception depends mainly on the geographic location. Normally there should be no reception problems within in a 1,500 km radius around Frankfurt.
Please take note of the following
- The recommended distance to any interfering sources like computer monitors or TV sets is at least 1.5 - 2 meters.
- Inside ferro-concrete rooms (basements, superstructures), the received signal is naturally weakened. In extreme cases, please place the unit close to a window to improve the reception.
- During night-time, the atmospheric interference is usually less severe and reception is possible in most cases. A single daily reception is adequate to keep the accuracy deviation under 1 second.
6.4 Inserting the batteries in the base station
The batteries will operate as a backup power source in case of power failure.
- For a permanent backlight use the supplied power adapter
- Open the battery compartment at the back of the base station.
