Weather forecast
The device calculates the weather forecast for approximately 12 hours in advance. The calculation is made on the
pressure development basis. The forecast is only indicative and cannot be compared with large weather stations. This
device provides only an approximate indication of the current weather trend in a small area. The forecast is
represented by the following icons:
Sunny
Slightly cloudy
Frozen
Rain
Storms
Snowfall
Notes:
•
The "Snowfall" icon will only appear if the outside temperature is below -
4 °C (+25 °F) and the forecast is for rain
or thunderstorms.
•
The data for the forecast is collected from the first channel. If there is no signal on the first channel, then from the
second channel and if there is no signal from either, then data from the third channel is used.
•
After 7 - 10 days of air pressure measurements, the forecast will be stable with an accuracy of 70 - 75%.
•
The forecast is valid for a radius of about 12 - 20 km.
•
In the INDOOR and OUTDOOR section, the symbol of increasing or decreasing pressure may be displayed. If no
symbol is displayed, the pressure remains constant.
Radio signal reception
•
The clock will automatically start searching for a
DCF
signal 7 minutes after any reboot or battery change. The radio
mast icon will start flashing.
•
At 1:00 /2:00/3:00, the clock will automatically synchronise with the
DCF
signal to correct any deviations from the
exact time. If this synchronization attempt is unsuccessful (the radio mast icon disappears from the display), the
system will automatically attempt another synchronization at the next full hour. This procedure is automatically
repeated up to five times in total.
•
To start manual reception of the
DCF
signal, press and hold the
"
▲
" button for two seconds. If no signal is received
within 7 minutes, the
DCF
signal search will stop (the radio mast icon will disappear) and start again on the next full
hour.
•
To stop searching for a radio signal while receiving a DCF radio signal, press and hold the
"
▲
" button for two
seconds.
Notes:
•
A flashing radio mast icon indicates that
DCF
signal reception has started
.
•
A continuously displayed radio mast icon indicates that the
DCF
signal has been successfully received.
•
The "
DST"
symbol indicates the time of daylight saving time adoption.
•
We recommend a minimum distance of 2.5 metres from all sources of interference such as televisions
•
Radio reception is weaker in rooms with concrete walls (e.g. basements) and in offices. In these extreme cases,
place the system near a window.
•
During DCF radio reception mode, only the
"
▲
" button works, other button operations can only turn on the
backlight. To perform other operation functions, press the
"
▲
" button to exit the DCF radio receive mode.
•
Note that the backlight will automatically turn off when you switch to the radio time reception mode. This is a
normal phenomenon. When you stop receiving radio time control, the backlight will automatically turn on.
