GPS satellite signal reception method

Conducting GPS satellite radio wave reception

Conducting standard time radio wave reception from 

one of six transmission stations worldwide 

(North America, Europe, China, Japan x2)

The world’s first GPS ATOMIC SOLAR HYBRID system

Hold down        for 3 seconds or longer until the second hand 

moves to the “T+P” position. Remove your finger from the button.

Initiating reception

B

[Automatic GPS satellite radio wave reception]

Automatic reception is enabled when the following conditions are met:

Time data is received from GPS satellites and the time is corrected (within 7 seconds ~ 1 minute).

Once data reception from GPS satellites begins, the mode hand 

draws a half circle several times. After the mode hand stops 

momentarily at the 12 o’clock position, reception is completed 

and the approximate latitude is indicated.

During and after 

reception

Operating the GPS ATOMIC SOLAR HYBRID

To receive time data only, 

align the second hand with 

the “TIME” indication by 

holding down     for 1 second.

• GPS reception begins upon entry into the Timekeeping Mode.

• To return to the Timekeeping Mode, hold down      for 2 seconds.

• Conduct this operation only when necessary in order to conserve energy.

When positioning information is received, the current location is 

automatically configured as the home city and the time and date are 

displayed automatically.

[ About the In-Flight mode ]

In aircraft and other places where radio wave reception is 

prohibited or restricted, hold down      for 4 seconds or longer to 

switch to the In-Flight mode. (Repeat the operation to cancel.)

Neither GPS nor standard time radio waves can be received 

in the In-Flight mode.

Important!

In-Flight mode is cancelled.

Timekeeping Mode is selected.

GPS radio wave reception is conducted automatically when the dial is struck by direct daylight 

continuously for 1~2 minutes during the hours from 6:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m.

[Automatic standard time radio wave reception]

Automatic reception is enabled in standard time radio wave reception areas when the following conditions are met:

If terrestrial standard time radio waves cannot be received, time data is received automatica

lly

 

from GPS satellites and the time is corrected (within approximate

ly

 7 seconds~1 minute).

In-Flight mode is cancelled.

Timekeeping Mode is selected.

Standard time radio wave reception is conducted automatically between the hours of 

0:00 to 5:00 a.m. and the time is corrected (within 2~10 minutes).

(Automatic standard time radio wave reception is prioritized in standard time radio wave reception areas.)

*Energy-efficient GPS reception is possible in the vicinity of windows and in other environments with good radio wave reception.

Important!

Once reception has 

been conducted 

successfully, 

automatic reception 

will not be repeated 

on the same day.

If the time or date is adjusted manually after successful time-calibration 

signal reception, the second hand indicates "NO" (incorrect).

 *The AUTO DST (Daylight Saving Time) function assures receipt of the precise time 

anywhere in the world based on high-resolution GPS map data with 500 m accuracy.
