Clock Operation - Grundig SATELLIT 600 PROFESSIONAL Operating Instructions Manual

Advertisement

N.B,
Remember that whenever a band Is se-
jected with the group of buttons ®, the
last station tuned to in the band will be
heard.
Example:
a. FM Stations
Suppose
you wish to enter a VHF station
broadcasting on 97.90 MHz on memory
position "1" for the VHF (FM) band. First
tune to the station manually or by direct
frequency selection (see Sec. 2 and 3
above).
Now key in the number of the memory po-
sition (in this case "1") to which the station
is to be allocated and press the "STORE
STATION" button ®,
The siation is then entered in the memory
and can be selected at any time using the
automatic selection system. At this point
the display @ will show
To select @ (VHF) FM station entered in the
memory, select the VHF band with the FM
button (group of buttons @), press button
"1" @ and then the STATION RECALL
button @.
b. AM Stations
AM
stations are entered in the memory
in
exactly the same
way and later selected
as described above. In this case, however,
the automatic preselector and the motor
drive for the auxiliary tuning scale can be
used if desired (press the centre part of
the control @) (see Sec. 2 above).
"AUT.PRESEL." will then appear in the dis-
play ©. When this drive system is on and
AM stations entered in the memory are se-
lected, the auxiliary tuning scale pointer
will give an approximate indication of fre-
quency. The display ® will show the pre-
cise frequency, the waveband (FM) and
the station memory position number as
well as "AUT. PRESEL.".
The auxiliary tuning scale @ is only for
use on AM, and in addition to indicating
frequency gives the centre frequency of
SW and amateur bands (eg: 11.8 MHz is.
marked above the 25-m band as the
centre frequency).
Clock Operation
The maximum 30 second interval between
each programming step also applies to the
clock. The time of day, the date and the
switching times can be entered even with
the set switched off. When the time is dis-
played, it is shown in hours and minutes
with the seconds reading in small figures
underneath.
Setting the Clock to the Time of Day
Example: The time of day (eg: 6.30) can
be entered using the numbered buttons @
in any the following ways:
"630", "6.30", "0630", "06.30".
tt is not therefore essential to enter the
decimal point. The clock will start running
exactly from the minute displayed (ie: sec-
onds reading "00") as soon as the SET-
TIME button @ is pressed. The time can
be displayed when the display is showing,
eg: frequency, by pressing button @
(TIME). When the set is switched off, the
display always shows the time of day.
Setting the Date
The date (eg: 9.7) can be entered using
the numbered buttons @ in any of the
following ways:
"09.07" or "09.07." (the decimal point must
be entered after the day, but is not es-
sential after the month).
If the number of the day or month is jess
than 10, it should be preceded by a "0"
(eg: January = 01).
The date is entered in the memory by
pressing the DATE bution @ and will ap-
pear in the display © for 30 seconds.
When the set is switched on the date can
be displayed for 30 seconds by pressing
the DATE bution @, after which the dis-
play will revert to the frequency. The dis-
play can
be switched to frequency imme-
diately by pressing the FREQ, button @.
If the set is switched off and the DATE but-
ton is pressed, the display will show the
date for 30 sec. and then automatically re-
vert to the time of day. The display can be
switched to showing the time of day im-
mediately by pressing the TIME button @.
Programming the Switching Times
The set can be programmed to switch on
and off automatically at preset times up to
three times a day. The switching times are
entered in the memory by means of the
ON-TIME and OFF-TIME SET buttons @).
The ON-TIME/OFF-TIME RECALL butions
@ are for displaying the switching times
once entered.
Example: Switch-on time 16.00 hours.
First select the switch-on time memory po-
sition by pressing the ON-TIME RECALL
button @). If a switch-on time has already
been programmed, it will appear in the
display ®. If not, the display will show a
colon with two lines to the right and left of
it. Enter the required switch-on time using
the numbered buttons @ (1-6-0-0) and
enter it in the memory by pressing the ON-
TIME SET button @. The second and third
switch-on time memory
positions can then
be selected with the ON-TIME RECALL
button @ and further switch-on times
entered in the memory by repeating the
above
procedure.
A similar procedure is followed for the
three swiich-off times except that the
OFF-TIME RECALL button @ is pressed to
select the switch-off time memory
position
and the OFF-TIME SET button @ to enter
the time in the memory,
