RCC (Radio Controlled Clock) Receiving Mode
1. During the RF receiving mode, if any key is pressed or time out (3minute), the
unit will ente
the RCC receiving mode(maximum 8 minutes). Press any key to
exit the RCC receiving mode.
2. If no RCC signal is detected, the base station will try once every hour to get
an RCC signal until a signal is received. Once the base station receives the
RCC signal it will overwrite the manually set time and date, on the base station
the RCC towe
icon will be display.
3. If RCC signal is detected successfully, the base station will continue to scan
fo
the RCC signal each day at 2:00, 8:00, 14:00 and 20:00, despite if you
manually set the date and time.
4. The best condition fo
reception is at night, between midnight and 6:00am
when there is less atmospheric interference.

Note fo
Radio Controlled Time:
The DCF WWVB or MSF time signal is an AM modulated time-of-day signal
broadcasted by the Federal Government of Germany, NIST from USA or
National Physical Laboratory. The time base is generated from an atomic
time generator which is accurate to 10 billions of one second.
Please take note o
the following fo
RCC time reception:
zRecommended distance to any interfering sources like compute
monitors
or TV sets is a minimum of 1.5-2 meters.
zWithin ferro-concrete rooms (basements, superstructures), the received
signal is naturally weakened. In extreme cases, please place the unit close
toawindowand/o
point its front or back towards the Frankfurt transmitter.

Additiona
transmitters
The wireless weather station can receive up to 3 temperature sensors. If you
have purchased additional remote sensors, repeat step 1) fo
all extra sensors.
However, ensure that you leave 10 seconds in between the reception o
the
last sensor and the set-up o
the following sensor. The wireless weather
station will numbe

of set-up automatically, i.e. the first
temperature sensor will have the temperature displayed with 1. If only have one
sensor, 1won’t be display.
2.4 Mounting
2.4.1 Base Station
With one foldable leg at the back of the unit, the base station can be placed onto
any flat surface or wall mounted at the desired location by the hanging holes at
the back of the unit. It is important to check that the radio signal can be received
before permanently mounting any of the units
