6.2 CLOCK:
Clock with DCF-77 reception indication.
In the image above the DST logo (daylight saving time) is visible.
Upon receiving the DCF-77 signal, the indicated time is correct. Briefly press “MODE” to view the
day, date and alarm time.
6.3 MOON PHASE:
The moon phase indication shows the moon phase by means of an icon.
This allows you to keep track of the moon phase.
The display of the moon phase is linked to the settings of the date, month and year.
The following moon phases may be indicated:
new moon
waxing crescent
first quarter
waxing moon
full moon
waning moon
last quarter
ashen moon
6.4 BAROMETER:
The barometer shows the actual air pressure value. This value may be indicated as an absolute or relative
value.
Relative air pressure:
The air pressure varies depending on the altitude (compared to sea level).
The absolute air pressure is the air pressure that is present independent from this altitude (take this value
as reference). For the prediction of the weather, it’s essential to measure the correct air pressure, also when
you’re e.g. 100 meters above sea level. This is called the relative air pressure. For every 8 meters, the air
pressure decreases by 1 hPa. When you’re not located in the mountains, you don’t have to adjust the air
pressure.
Press the “WEATHER-ABS REL” button at the rear to switch the display between Absolute and Relative.
To adjust the relative air pressure notation (see display next to the text
BAROMETER-ABSREL
).
• press the “WEATHER-ABS REL” button to show the relative air pressure.
• press the “WEATHER-ABS REL” button again and keep it depressed until the weather station emits a
beep tone and then briefly press the “WEATHER-ABS REL” button again.
•
the air pressure value now starts flashing.
• you may now use the
▼
and
▲
buttons to adjust the relative air pressure.
• the air pressure value can only be adjusted in the relative air pressure mode.
• press the “WEATHER-ABS REL” button again to save your setting.
Trend indication:
The air pressure is higher compared to before
The air pressure remains the same as before
The air pressure is lower compared to before
