Entering the degrees of latitude/longitude
The entry of the location of the weather station is required for
the calculation of sunrise and sunset times.
The degree of latitude can be entered in the range from -60.0°
to +60.0°.
The degree of longitude can be entered in the range from 0.0°
to 360.0°.
The position of Berlin is programmed by the manufac-
turer.
You can determine your location in different ways:
• You find a table with the coordinates of the most important
German towns in the chapter "Position Table". Select a town
close to you and enter its coordinates.
• If you possess a GPS navigation device, e.g. in your car or
a mobile one, you can take over its location information and
then you have your exact position.
• You can also get the exact coordinates via the Internet. It
provides numerous pages which contain information on
navigation.
Please consider the fact that the data for sunrise or sunset are
only exact at the sea or for a totally even landscape. Hills, high
forests etc. alter these values for your location.
Even for ideal positions the data may vary by some minutes,
because an approximation formula is used for the calculation.
Set the degree of latitude via the + and - keys.
