6. Getting started
• Place the basic station and the transmitter on a desk with a distance of approximately 1.5 meter.
Avoid getting close to possible interference sources (electronic devices and radio installations).
• Remove the protective foil from the display of the basic station.
• Connect the basic station to the attached power adapter. Insert the adapter into the jack at the
basic station and connect the power adapter to a wall socket. Important! Make sure that your
household voltage is 230V! Otherwise your clock may be damaged.
• The device will alert you with a beep and all LCD segments will be displayed for a short
moment.
6.1 Inserting of the batteries in the outdoor transmitter / Reception of the outdoor values
• Slide down the battery compartment lid of the outdoor transmitter.
• Insert two new batteries 1,5 V AA. Make sure the polarities are correct.
• After the batteries are inserted, the outdoor values will be transmitted to the basic station.
• As soon as the basic station receives the outdoor values, the values are permanently shown.
• If the reception of the outdoor values fails, "- -" appears on the display. Check the batteries and
try it again. Check if there is any source of interference.
• You can also start the outdoor transmitter search manually later on (for example when the out-
door transmitter is lost or the batteries are changed).
• Hold the HEAT/DEW button on the basic station for three seconds.
• "---" appears on the display.
• Press the TX button in the battery compartment of the outdoor transmitter.
• The device will alert you with a beep and the basic station receives the values from the outdoor
transmitter.
• After successful installation close the battery compartment of the outdoor transmitter carefully.
6.2 Reception of the DCF reception signal
• After the reception of outdoor values, the clock is now trying to receive the reception signal
and the DCF reception symbol will be flashing.
• When the time code is received successfully after 3-10 minutes, the radio-controlled time and
the DCF symbol are displayed steadily in the LCD.
• The DCF reception always takes place at 1:00, 2:00 and 2:00 o'clock in the morning. If the recep-
tion is not successfully received at 3:00 clock, it shall be held further attempts until 5:00 clock.
• You can also activate the DCF reception manually.
• Press the TIME SET button.
• The DCF reception symbol will be flashing.
• There are three different reception symbols:
flashing – reception is active
stays – reception is good
No symbol – no reception
• By default, the DCF reception is activated and after successful reception of the DCF signal no
manual adjustment is necessary.
