b) inserting batteries into the base station
-
Open the battery compartment of the back of the base station by sliding the battery compart-
ment cover on the bottom of the base station off backwards, in direction of the arrow.
-
Insert two batteries of type AA/Mignon with correct polarity into the base station (observe
positive/+ and negative/-). Close the battery compartment again.
-
Once the batteries are inserted, the base station briefly shows all display segments and a beep
is audible. If only meaningless characters appear on the display, press the "RESET" button (15),
using e.g. a toothpick.
Alternatively, you may also remove the batteries for a few seconds and then insert them again.
c) searching for available outdoor sensors
-
After inserting the batteries, the base station starts searching for the radio signal of the avail-
able outdoor sensors automatically. This search takes approx. 5 minutes.
During this time, do not move the base station and the outdoor sensor or press any buttons.
-
When the search is completed, the reception symbol (6) for the DCF signal flashes. The base
station now searches for the DCF signal to set the time automatically, see next section.
d) dCF reception
The DCF signal is a signal broadcast from a transmitter in Main-
flingen (near Frankfurt am Main). Its range is up to 1500 km and,
under ideal reception conditions, even up to 2000 km.
The DCF signal contains, among other things, the exact time and
the date (however, the base station can only display the time).
Naturally, this also eliminates the hassle of manually setting up
summer and winter times.
-
When the base station has completed the search for the outdoor sensor, it starts the search for
the DCF signal. The reception display (6) for the DCF signal flashes.
-
Do not place the base station next to electronic devices, metal parts, cables and so on. Also
expect poor signal strength where metallised insulating glass windows, reinforced concrete
constructions, coated special wallpaper is used or in basement rooms.
-
The recognition and interpretation of the DCF signal can take 6 minutes. Do not move the base
station during that time. Do not use any buttons.
After the base station has read the DCF signal correctly, the current time of the day is dis-
played in the top display line and the reception symbol (6) stops flashing. During summer,
"DST" (= "Daylight Saving Time" = summer time) is shown to the left of the reception symbol
(6).
The synchronisation of the base station and DCF signal is done daily at 2:00 AM, 8:00 AM,
2.00 PM and 8.00 PM. Only one successful reception attempt per day is enough to keep the
deviation of the integrated clock below one second.
-
If no current time is shown on the base station's display after about 6 minutes, move the base
station to a different site.
Then briefly press the "RCC" button (16) to restart the DCF reception attempt.
Alternatively, the time can be set manually on the base station.
-
The base station is then ready to use
e) installation/set-up
Prior to permanently mounting the outdoor sensor, you should make sure the base sta-
tion receives the radio signal of the outdoor sensor correctly.
-
The outdoor sensor can be mounted on the wall through its rear opening (20) using a nail,
screw or hook. Alternatively, you can also set it up on a level surface.
The outdoor sensor is suitable for use in protected outdoor areas. It should be placed so that it
is not exposed to direct sunlight, since this can result in false readings. Precipitation falling on
the outdoor sensor will also lead to false readings, since this cools the housing. Never dip the
outdoor sensor in or under water; this will destroy it!
Therefore, we recommend you choose the installation place carefully, so the outdoor sensor
measures the correct temperature.
-
The base station can be set up on a level, stable surface. Protect valuable furniture surfaces by
using a suitable mat to prevent scratches.
For the installation of the device choose a place that is not directly exposed to the sun or not
located close to a radiator. This will cause an inaccurate temperature indication.
OPeRatiOn
a) manually starting the dCF reception attempt
-
Briefly press the "RCC" button (16) to restart the DCF reception attempt.
The reception symbol (6) on the display flashes. The reception attempt lasts for approx. 6
minutes, do not move the base station during that time, and do not press any button.
Do not place the base station next to electronic devices, metal parts, cables and so on.
Also expect poor signal strength where metallised insulating glass windows, reinforced
concrete constructions, coated special wallpaper is used or in basement rooms.
-
If the DCF reception is impossible at the location of the base station, set the time manually.
b) starting the search for outdoor sensors manually
-
Briefly press the "SENSOR" button (11) on the base station, the reception symbol (7) starts to
flash.
-
The base station now searches for available outdoor sensors (one is enclosed in the package,
up to two more can be ordered as accessories). This search takes 5 minutes. Do not press any
button on the base station during that time, and do not move the device.
If more than one outdoor sensor is used, each sensor has to be set to a different trans-
mission channel. To this end, use the sliding switch (21) in the battery compartment of
the outdoor sensor.
If the device cannot find the outdoor sensor (only dashes in the display area for the
outdoor sensor), decrease the distance between the outdoor sensor and base station,
choose a different mounting/installation place. Refer to the chapter "Range".

d) toggling between 12h/24h mode
Please proceed as described above under point c).
When the setting mode is started, the reception symbol (6) for the DCF reception disappears.
When the base station performs the daily reception attempt (at 2.00 AM, 8.00 AM, 2.00 PM and
8.00 PM) successfully, the symbol appears again. In this process, the setting of the 12h/24h mode
remains unchanged.
e) setting the time zone
Please proceed as described above under point c).
When the setting mode is started, the reception symbol (6) for the DCF reception disappears.
When the base station performs the daily reception attempt (at 2.00 AM, 8.00 AM, 2.00 PM and
8.00 PM) successfully, the symbol appears again. In this process, the setting of the time zone
remains unchanged.
