3. SET-UP
Setting-up the CELEBRATION-88 is easy. Just follow the steps below.
1- Activate the batteries in the remote sensor
2- Position the remote sensor in the same room in a radius of about 1 meter to the display
unit.
3- Activate the batteries in the display unit: First a full segment display will appear on the
LCD for about 3 seconds.
4- Now the device will begin receiving the remote sensor and thereafter the time from time
signal transmitter DCF77 (the corresponding symbols will blink). Wait until all
information (time and temperature) are displayed correctly by the device or until all
symbols have stopped blinking. This may take a few minutes.
You can now operate the device and for example enter an event with date, time and text.
In chapter 4 you will find details for optional settings and also information on certain
procedures.
4. EXTENDED OPERATION
All operations on the device are carried out by pressing buttons.
It is very important that you read chapters 2 and 3!
In these chapters you will find additional information about the functions
4.1 Weather forecasts
This Irox device uses a high quality pressure sensor to measure barometric pressure and the
respective changes. This information is then, using a by meteorologists specially developed
algorithm, used to calculate a weather forecast for the coming 12-24 hrs. Seven different
forecasts are possible:
COMMENT: These calculated weather forecasts have a reliability of approx. 70%.
The forecast for the coming 12-24 hrs is displayed, not the current weather. SUNNY
means clear weather day and night.
Slightly cloudy

4.2 Temperature / Moisture
The display unit measures the temperature and relative humidity of its location and receives
an additional measurement from the remote sensor included in the delivery. The temperature
is displayed in °C.
SEARCH FOR REMOTE SENSOR
You can start the search for the remote sensor manually by pressing and holding the button
for 3 seconds. The wave icon in the left corner of the window C will start to blink.
The wave icon indicates the receiving status of the remote sensor signal:
With this search procedure the device searches the same sensor that was already previously
logged in. If you replace the batteries in the sensor, the sensor gives itself a new code and
will then no longer be recognized by the display unit. You can resolve this problem by:
- removing the batteries from the display unit and replacing them with new ones (all settings
will be lost afterwards !)
or
- if the batteries of the main unit are still O.K., repeating the logging in procedure as
described above by pressing and holding the button and while the wave icon is blinking
press and hold the button again for 3 seconds. The temperature indicator will start to
blink indicating that a new sensor is being searched for and will be logged in.
The search process may be started at any time. We recommend switching off the ticker
(scrolling) during the search process and leaving the outdoor temperature ("OUTDOOR")
displayed in window C.
RADIO CONTROLLED CLOCK RECEIVING LOGIC
1. As described in chapter 3 the time transmitted by the time signal transmitter DCF77 is
automatically received when the batteries are activated. The time signal reception takes
about 3-10 minutes. During receiving the icon will blink, if reception is good with
waves if reception is poor without.
2. If you would like to switch the automatic time reception off and then on again you can do
so with the time-setting (see below "Setting").
3. During normal operation an automatic time reception will be activated daily at 0:00 and
4:00. If the reception at 4:00 failed, another reception will start at 5:00.
4. As soon as the device has received a signal the time will be correctly adjusted and the
icon is active.
5. If reception is poor the icon will be displayed. You may then set the reception to OFF
and adjust the clock manually (see below "Setting"). If you leave the reception On, a
next reception attempt will then be activated during the night.
SETTING
You can choose between two operating modes for the clock:
1- Radio controlled clock with regular time comparisons. In between the active receptions
the time runs on integrated quartz (this is a factory setting which is reactivated after every
battery replacement)
2- Strictly as a quartz clock
Move to set mode with the set button (press and hold for 3 seconds). On will appear in the
time display. This means the radio receiving is activated.
With the / buttons you can make changes to the setting, with the set button you move to
the next setting.
The setting options vary depending on operating mode On or OFF
Operating mode 1 – Radio controlled clock on = On
- Time indication format: 24 hours or 12 hours resp. AM/PM
- Language selection of the weekday display of the programmed event
- Time zone setting (standard =0, adjustable from -9 to +9 hours):
Time deviation as compared with the received radio time as the respectively valid time in
Central Europe (Germany, France, Switzerland, Denmark etc.). If you set a time zone
“ZONE” and the accordingly corrected time will appear on the time display. This is ideal for
locations where the DCF77 time signal is received but that have a different time such as
Great Britain (-1HR) or Finland (+1HR)
Complete the setting with the set button
If the radio reception was reactivated (switching from OFF to On), the time signal will also
be newly received after exiting the set mode.
Operating mode 2 – Radio controlled clock off = OFF
- Time indication format: 24 hours or 12 hours resp. AM/PM
- Language selection of the weekday display of the programmed event
- Setting the hours
- Setting the minutes
- Setting the date
We recommend this operating mode for locations where the time signal can not be received.
Switching off the receiver spares the batteries.
To the language selection for the event day:
There are a total of 19 languages available. In a predetermined language block of 3
languages the weekday of the programmed event is displayed with a 3 letter abbreviation of
the weekday.
The language blocks contain following 3 languages:
Deutsch – Français- Italiano
English – Espanol – Portugues
Danske/Norske – Svenska – Islenska
Nederlands – Suomalainen – Polski
Cesky – Slovencina – Magyar
Ruski – Srpski – Hrvatski (Russian and Serbian are depicted Cyrillic)
Caution: It may occur that, due to disturbances in the surroundings (i.e. TV's, energy
saving lamps etc.), the sensor's signal gets lost. If this condition lasts over a longer period
of time, the receiver will switch off its continuous receiving mode and after about 1-2
hours will again search for a signal.
If in the OUTDOOR line only bars appear you can manually search for the sensor, as
described in this chapter.
4.3 Time function
The time signal DCF 77 is transmitted by the atomic clock in Mainflingen near
Frankfurt/Main. The long-wave transmitter has a range of up to 1500 km.
If the time icon is displayed without waves you have reception problems. Please
observe following points:
- There are fewer disturbances in the atmosphere during the night which increases the
likeliness of reception. One reception per day is completely sufficient to ensure the
preciseness of the clock by +/- 1 second
- Make sure that the device is at least 2 meters (8 feet) away from possible sources of
disturbance such as TV, computer, monitor, microwave etc.
- In rooms with concrete or metal walls (e.g. cellar rooms, modern office buildings etc.) the
receipt of the signal may be more difficult due to the shielding. In such cases find a better
location for the device near a window. Sometimes it also helps to simply turn the device
by 90°, thereby improving the alignment of the receiving antenna.
Caution: During the setting procedure as described below you will exit the setting mode if
more than 1 minute passes between pressing the buttons. The settings already made up to
this point will be taken over.
4.4 Target Date (Event) and Countdown
You can enter the time of one event with year, month, day and hour and in addition a
corresponding text with up to 15 letters.
CELEBRATION will then countdown the days, hours, minutes and seconds from the set
time to the beginning of the event (COUNTDOWN).
If the event takes place in a different time zone it is very important that you calculate the
time difference. If for example admittance to an event is at 17:00 in London, then it is
already 18:00 in Central Europe! If then for example you live in Germany or Switzerland
you must enter 18:00 as start time!
When programming an event consider following questions:
- In which time zone is the event taking place?
- In which time zone do you live and what time is it on your display?
- Is daylight savings time (summer/winter) of importance?
You can enter a target date up to the year 2099. The countdown display is limited to
maximum 3999 days (this means an event that is over ten years from "now"!). If you select
a date beyond these 3999 days the clock will still count the time down but only in the
background. The depicted 3999 days, 23 hours, 59 minutes and 59 seconds remains the
same until the countdown is below this number.
Caution: During the setting procedure as described below you will exit the setting mode if
more than 1 minute passes between pressing the buttons. The settings already made up to
this point will be taken over.
SETTING
Press and hold the event set button until TARGET DAY SET appears in window B and the
year (YEAR) blinks.
You can adjust the setting with the / buttons, use the set button to move to the next
setting:
Month Day Hour Text for the event (in window C !).
The letters for the text line are also selected using the / button, to move to the next
character use the set button. You can also use the event set button to move back in the
text. Maximum 15 characters can be entered.
Selection of characters: A-Z, 0-9, Space and special characters / + * '
Setting is complete when the last character in window C has been confirmed by pressing the
set button or if when entering the text the set button is pressed and held for 3 seconds.
WHAT HAPPENS WHEN THE COUNTDOWN IS COMPLETED ?
When the countdown reaches zero the time of the event has arrived.
All zeros of the TARGET DAY and the event text display will blink (if the ticker was
activated it will stop). All buttons are now blocked with the exception of the event set
button.
By pressing the event set button you can acknowledge this message and the display that
was active prior to the end of the countdown will appear.
In window B End will now appear for COUNTDOWN and TARGET DAY.
This status will remain until midnight. At midnight the event will be deleted.
It is possible though to program a new event before midnight.
4.5 Moon phase
