With good reception, the connected DCF reference clock will synchronize within three minutes after initial-
ization.
Successful synchronization is signaled by the "Sync" LED turning from red to green. Reception problems
are signaled by the "Sync" LED turning red again. If the clock is running off the oscillator alone for more than
12 hours, the "Sync" LED will begin to flash.
Ensure that the maximum cable length is not exceeded when laying the
antenna cable between the antenna and receiver.
The maximum cable length
will depend on the cable type used (e.g., RG58) and its attenuation factor.

The antenna cable may act as a conductor for volt-
age surges (e.g., lightning strike), which may damage
your receiver. The receiver can be protected against
these transient voltages by using a surge protector
with a floating shield (0V potential against ground).
Before installing the surge protector, please ensure
that it is also suitable for outdoor use.
Meinberg
recommends installing the surge protector inside the
building, as close as possible to the point where the
cable passes through the building exterior, in order to
minimize the risk of damage from voltage surges (e.g.,
lightning strike).
Meinberg recommends using the
surge protector with floating
shield for coaxial cable connections from the manufacturer Phoenix Contact.
