4.6. MSF radio receiver clock
Set the 1,5 V LR6 battery in its location respectful of the polarities.
The clock will start a test cycle (the hands will automatically stop at 4 o’clock).
The radio synchronization process then starts. If the reception is possible, the exact time is set
automatically in accelerated mode.
The clock movement receives the messages transmitted though long waves (60.0 kHz) from the
MSF emitter situated in Rugby (UK) and set to the GMT time. Local conditions of reception are a
major parameter in the signal quality.
In case of difcult reception, the clock synchronisation can last several hours keeping in mind
that the signal reception is better during the night.
4.7. DHF clock
Ensure that the transmitter is set in “Init” mode prior to the clock
installation.
The clock is delivered in “Init” mode. To check this, ensure that, when
the clock is powered, the LED (L) is blinking once per second.
Otherwise, shunt the two pins (P) for more than 4 seconds.
When inserting the batteries matching up the [+] and [-] symbols or
switching on power supply (for TBT clocks), hands are set at 4h00 or
12h00 until the correct reception of the time signal is achieved.
The clock will try to pick up the radio signal.
If the reception is good, the clock is synchronised automatically.
Without synchronization for 4 hours, battery operated clocks stop
searching for incoming signals. The LED blinks every 3 seconds. To force
the clock to search again, shunt the two pins (P) for more than 4 seconds
or remove the batteries and insert them again after 10 seconds.
If the reception is poor, increase the transmission power or install a DHF
repeater.
Without power supply, the clock stops.
When the power and the DHF signal are back then the clock is set to the correct time. When the
power is back but not the DHF signal, the hands are driven to 4h or 12h.
