A. Position of the Second Hand During Reception
[Reception in Progress] [Reception in Progress] [Completion of Reception]
◆ Second hand moves
to RX and stops.
◆ Second hand moves from
RX to reception level H,
M or L and reception of
radio waves begins.
◆ If radio waves have been received
properly, the second hand returns
to 1-second interval movement,
and each hand is automatically
corrected to the correct time.
<Time Required for Receiving Radio Waves>
It takes from about 2 to 15 minutes to receive radio waves depending on the weather and radio
wave noise conditions on that day.
[NOTE] The second hand may make one revolution and indicate the reception
level again if the transmitter station has changed while reception is in
progress or radio wave reception has been interrupted by changes in
the reception environment and so forth. Do not move the watch until the
second hand returns to 1-second interval movement.
