FAKTUM – Wireless weather station
1514
In case the clock cannot detect the DCF-signal (for example due to disturbances,
transmitting distance, etc.), the time can be set manually.
The clock will then work as a normal quartz clock (see 4.1 Setting of clock and
calendar).
Note for radio controlled time DCF:
The time base for the radio controlled time is a Caesium Atomic Clock operated by
the Physikalisch Technische Bundesanstalt Braunschweig which has a time deviation
of less than one second in one million years. The time is coded and transmitted from
Mainflingen near Frankfurt via frequency signal DCF-77 (77.5 kHz) and has a transmit-
ting range of approximately 1,500 km. The quality of the reception depends greatly
on the geographic location. In normal cases, there should be no reception problems
within a 1,500 km radius around Frankfurt.
Please take note of the following:
Recommended distance to any interfering sources like computer monitors or TV
sets is a minimum of 1.5 - 2 metres.
Within ferro-concrete rooms (basements, superstructures), the received signal is
naturally weakened. In extreme cases, please place the unit close to a window
and/or point its front or back towards the Frankfurt transmitter.
During night-time, the atmospheric disturbances are usually less severe and recep-
tion is possible in most cases. A single daily reception is adequate to keep the accu-
racy deviation below 1 second.
4. Operation
4.1 Manual setting of clock and calendar
Press and hold MODE button in normal mode.
The day-of-week language digit is flashing. Press or button to adjust it. Day-
of-week language: English (EN), German (GE), French (FR), Italian (IT), Spanish (SP),
Dutch (NE), Swedish (SW).
Press MODE button and the setting sequence is shown as follows: Temperature
unit (°C or °F), year, month, date, month/day sequence (American version) or
day/month (European version), 12 (PM appears on the display after 12 h) and 24
hours system indication, hours and minutes. Press or button to make the
desired settings.
If DCF reception is on, the manually set time will be overwritten by the DCF time
when the signal is received successfully.
4.2 Indication of time
Each press on the MODE button in normal mode will change the display between:
Time with seconds
Time with day-of-week
Dual time with day of week
Dual time with seconds
Display of date
4.3 Dual time
Press MODE button twice in normal mode.
ZONE appears on the display.
Press and hold MODE button.

3. Getting started
3.1 Insert batteries
Open the battery compartment of the display unit and the transmitter (screwed)
and place both instruments on a desk with a distance of approximately 1.5 metres.
Check that no other electronic devices are close.
Insert 2 batteries AA 1.5 V into the battery compartment of the display unit.
Observe the correct polarity.
As soon as the reception symbol of the outdoor transmitter is flashing, insert 2 bat-
teries AA 1.5 V into the battery compartment of the transmitter. Observe the
correct polarity.
After batteries were inserted, the HPa/MBar flashes on the display for 60 seconds.
In this period you can set the local altitude for the calculation of the relative
atmospheric pressure. For the most exact adjustment we recommend to set the rel-
ative atmospheric pressure directly after the successful reception of the radio con-
trolled clock (see 5.3.1)
3.2 Reception of outdoor temperature and humidity
The display unit automatically starts scanning the signals to register the outdoor
transmitter after batteries are inserted. The unit will scan the outdoor values for
2 min.
If the reception of outdoor values fails, “- -“ appears on the display. Check the bat-
teries and try it again. Check if there is any source of interference.
3.3 Radio controlled time reception
The clock will scan the DCF frequency signal and the DCF symbol flashes on the
LCD. When the signal is received successfully after 3-8 minutes, the radio con-
trolled time and the DCF symbol appear permanently. During the DCF time recep-
tion period no outdoor data will be transmitted.
There are 4 different reception icons:
- Reception is active
- Reception is very good
- No reception/time is set manually
No icon - reception is deactivated (press and hold button for 2 sec.)
Press button again for 2 sec. to activate the reception manually.
