    Once the remote temperature has been received and displayed on the weather station, the DCF time (radio controlled time) code reception is automatically started. This takes typically between 3-5 minutes in good conditions. DCF RADIO CONTROLLED TIME The time base for the radio controlled time is a Cesium Atomic Clock operated by the Physikalisch Technische Bundesanstalt Braunschweig which has a time deviation of less than one second in one million years.

  • Page 19 For every sudden or significant change in the air pressure, the weather icons will update accordingly to represent the change in weather. If the icons do not change, then it means either the air pressure has not changed or the change has been too slow for the weather station to register.
  • Page 20: The Weather Tendency Indicator

    If the weather station is moved to another location significantly higher or lower than its initial standing point (for example from the ground floor to the upper floors of a house), remove the batteries and re-insert them after about 30 seconds. By doing this, the weather station will not mistake the new location as being a possible change in air-pressure when really it is due to the slight change of altitude.
  • Page 21: Display Of Indoor Temperature And Humidity Reading

    Note: Once the weather tendency indicator has registered a change in air pressure, it will remain • permanently visualized on the LCD. When the tendency indicator is pointing to the right, it means that no pressure change has • been detected by the weather station from the beginning. Therefore, the coming weather condition is expected to be more or less the same as the current condition.
