• Then, the weather station will start scanning for the available outdoor sensors (one is
enclosed, up to two more can be ordered as accessories).
The reception symbol for the radio signal of the outdoor sensors flashes in the display.
The sensor search takes about 3 minutes. Do not move the weather station and outdoor
sensor during this time and do not push any button.
• After the search for the available outdoor sensors is completed, the weather station
starts its search for the DCF signal. At the upper right of the display, the radio tower
symbol for DCF reception flashes.
The DCF signal search will take several minutes. Do not move the weather station
during this time and do not press any button.
Do not put the weather station next to electronic devices, metal parts, cables, etc. Bad
reception can also be expected, e.g. in case of metallised insulation glass windows,
reinforced concrete construction, coated special wallpaper or basement rooms.
The DCF signal is a signal that is sent by a transmitter
in Mainflingen (near Frankfurt on the Main). Its
range is up to 1500 km, and under perfect reception
conditions even up to 2000 km.
Among others, the DCF signal contains the precise
time and date.
Of course, the tedious switching between summer
and winter time manually can also be dispensed
with.
The weather station will try to receive the DCF signal every day between 01:00
and 05:00 AM (at each full hour). If, for example, a correct DCF signal was
recognised at 01:00 AM, the weather station will start a new reception attempt
at 02:00 AM.
A single successful reception per day will keep the deviation of the integrated
clock below a second.
If the weather station has properly read the DCF signal, the current time, date, month
and weekday will appear.
The radio tower symbol stops flashing. During summer time, a small symbol „S" appears
in the upper right of the display.
