6. Description of Functions
The radio projection clock can receive
and evaluate the so called DCF signal.
This is a signal which is sent by a
transmitter in Mainflingen (near Frank-
furt on the Main). Its range is up to
1500km and if transmission conditions
are ideal even up to 2000km.
Among other information, the DCF signal
includes the exact time (theoretical
deviation is 1 second in one million
years!) and the date.
This means there is no need to manually
set the clock to summer and winter time.
The first attempt to receive a DCF signal
is carried out at initial operation (when
the batteries are inserted).
The detection of the DCF signal and its evaluation can take 3-5 minutes. Do not
move the radio projection clock during this period of time. Do not push any
buttons.
Do not place the radio projection clock next to electric/electronic devices; do
not place it near cables, plugs or metallic parts.
Poor reception can also be caused by materials such as metallized insulated
glass, reinforced concrete buildings, coated special wallpaper or installation in
cellars.
An attempt to receive a signal is carried out every hour on the hour. A single error-free receipt
of signal per day is sufficient to keep the daily precision deviation under 1 second.
If no current time/date is shown in the display after 10 to 20 minutes, then change the position
of the radio projection clock. Start a new attempt to receive a DCF signal (hold the "WAVE"
button down until a radio tower symbol appears in the display or simply remove the batteries
for a short period of time).
The time and date can also be manually set, for example, when there is no DCF
signal when you are on holiday.
