Working principle
The clock contains a receiver which receives a radio-signal from a radio station located near Frankfurt,
Germany. This long-wave radio-signal (DCF77) is based on atomic clocks and contains time and date
information. The clock automatically synchronizes with this master clock radio-signal and when necessary
adjusts the positions of second, minute or hour hands of the clock.
Due to its nature, the radio-signal can be received indoors. However, it should be noted that the signal is
weakened by the presence of concrete and metal. Therefore the clock must not be installed in concrete
basements or inside metal cages. In large concrete office buildings or apartments, the clock should be
located near a window for better reception.
Also avoid installing the clock near strong magnetic fields or other devices that generate a lot of electrical
noise (e.g. engines).
