Error: 03 Folders
No file folders have been detected on the microSD card.
Try powering off and on again. If the message persists, check the card for file corruption etc. using a PC card reader (the card
must have between 1 and 16 folders containing voice files).
Error: 04 RTCchip
There has been an error communicating with the RTC module chip. This message may also be reported while the clock is running.
Try powering off and on again, or try removing the CR2032 coin-cell for a few minutes. A watchmaker or similar small
screwdriver will enable you to prize it out of the holder.
Try re-seating the microcontroller IC in its socket.
Error: 05 RTCdata
There has been an error with the RTC time or date (this message may also be reported while the clock is running, with all four LEDs flashing).
This fault occurs occasionally when your radio time signal receiver sends non-compliant code (in other words, reports an ‘impossible’ time
of day like 25 o’clock) to TIM 2015 and confuses it entirely. This can occur if local radio interference (such as a noisy thermostat or an
unsuppressed passing motorcycle) is stronger than the signal from the distant radio time signal transmitter and corrupts the radio signal
received.
The solution is to power down, unscrew the case and remove the CR2032 coin-cell for a couple of minutes. Use a screwdriver to pop it out.
This will erase the stored time data and force the realtime clock (RTC) to reset.
If this does not do the trick, you need to force TIM 2015 back to its original state by doing a Factory Reset. Power down the clock, press
down the left-hand selector knob and hold it in while reconnecting power until the following message is displayed:
Factory Reset? Yes
>No
. Turn the knob to move the pointer to
Yes
and press the button. The reset is confirmed by
Done
and the clock will restart and prompt
for the time to be set. A factory reset may be required if the clock behaves abnormally or you want to easily reset the user settings back to
defaults. (The reset
does not change
any network configuration stored in the Wi-Fi module, if fitted.)
To gain access to the interior of TIM 2015, turn off the power and then loosen the four screws in the base of the plastic case and remove the
upper part of the case.
