7. 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 trans-
mitting 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 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 nighttime, the atmospheric interference is usually less severe and recep-
tion is possible in most cases. A single daily reception is adequate to keep the
accuracy deviation under 1 second.
8. Operation
• Important: During the reception of the outdoor values and the radio-controlled
time, a button operation is not possible.
