Manual time setting
The base station will continue to scan for the radio controlled time
signal from 2am-6 am each day (winter time) or from 3am-6am
(summer time) despite it being manually set. During reception at-
tempts the DCF tower icon will flash.
•
If reception has been unsuccessful, then the DCF77 tower
icon will not appear but reception will still be attempted the
following hour within the time frame
•
If reception has been successful, the received time and date
will overwrite the manually set time and date and no further
reception is attempted until the following day
14. MIN/MAX Programming Modes
MIN/MAX display Mode
The MIN/MAX Mode provides the user with information about the
MIN/MAX values of all weather data together with the time and date
at which these values were recorded.
Entering each MIN/MAX mode
In the normal display mode for e.g. the indoor temperature and hu-
midity, press MIN/MAX key to toggle the display between the maxi-
mum, minimum and current records. While the maximum or minimum
values are shown press the DISPLAY key once to show the time and
date that value was received. Now press the MIN/MAX key to toggle
from the minimum and maximum readings and the time and dates the
records were received are also shown. Still in the MIN/MAX mode
(where the time and date for a value are shown), press the DISPLAY
key to move through each respective unit as follows:
•
Indoor temperature (max or min with time and date)
•
Indoor humidity (max or min with time and date)
•
Outdoor temperature (max or min with time and date)
•
Outdoor humidity (max or min with time and date)
•
Outdoor wind chill (max or min with time and date)
•
Outdoor dew point (max or min with time and date)
•
Rainfall 24 hours (max or min with time and date)
•
Rainfall 1 hour (max or min with time and date)
•
Rainfall total (max only with time and date)
When in any of the above modes, press the MIN/MAX key to toggle
between the maximum or minimum values of those records and their
respective time and dates will also be shown.
For the wind and pressure minimum and maximum readings, the
same would apply except that the WIND or PRESSURE keys would
be used instead of the DISPLAY KEY.
Exiting the MIN/MAX modes
If the maximum and minimum modes with times and dates are dis-
played, press the PLUS(+) key twice to return the normal display
mode.
Resetting the MIN/MAX records
Whilst in the minimum or maximum mode, the time and dates are also
displayed along with the recorded values. If the MINUS(-) key is
pressed whilst any of these values are displayed, that particular
minimum or maximum record will be reset to current reading together
with the current time and date with the exception of the following:
The first case is Rainfall Total, which has neither maximum nor
minimum records since it will show only the total rainfall. Pressing
the MINUS(-) key, will reset the rainfall total value to zero and the
time recording to current time.
The second case is Rainfall 24h or 1h, which records maximum
rain count only for these respective times. Pressing the MINUS(-)
key in either of these two modes will reset the rain count to the
current rain count and time and date.
