Reference
This section contains more detailed and technical information about watch operation.
It also contains important precautions and notes about the various features and
functions of this watch.
Auto Return Features
If you leave a screen with flashing digits on the display for two or three minutes
without performing any operation, the watch automatically saves any settings you
have made up to that point and exits the setting screen.
Data and Setting Scrolling
The A and D buttons are used in various setting screens to scroll through the
available settings on the display. In most cases, holding down these buttons during a
scroll operation scrolls through the settings at high speed.
Timekeeping
Home Time is displayed in 12-hour or 24-hour format, while UTC is always displayed
in 24-hour format.
With the 12-hour format, the P (PM) indicator appears to the left of the hour digits for
times in the range of noon to 11:59 p.m. and no indicator appears to the left of the
hour digits for times in the range of midnight to 11:59 a.m.
With the 24-hour format, times are displayed in the range of 0:00 to 23:59, with 24
indicator.
The 12-hour/24-hour timekeeping format you select in the Timekeeping Mode is also
applied in all modes.
The year can be set in the range of 2001 to 2098.
The watch’s built-in full automatic calendar automatically makes allowances for
different month lengths and leap years. Once you set the date, there should be no
reason to change it except after you have the watch’s battery replaced.
UTC
The letters “UTC” stands for “Universal Time Coordinated,” which is the world-wide
standard of timekeeping. It is based upon carefully maintained atomic (cesium) clocks
that keep accurate to within microseconds. Leap seconds are added or subtracted as
necessary to keep UTC in sync with the Earth’s rotation. The reference point for UTC
is Greenwich, England.
Time Calibration Signal Reception Precautions
This watch receives the time calibration signal (Call
Sign: DCF77) transmitted from Mainflingen, Germany
(located 25 kilometers southeast of Frankfurt). Signal
reception is possible within a radius of about 1,000
kilometers from the Mainflingen transmitter.
Signal reception may be poor in the shaded area on the
map, even though it is within 1,000 kilometers of the
signal transmitter.
The current time setting in accordance with the time
calibration signal takes priority over any time settings
you make.
The Mainflingen time calibration signal includes summer
time (DST) data.
The watch is designed to automatically update the date
and day of the week for the period January 1, 2001 to
December 31, 2098. Setting of the date by the time
calibration signal cannot be performed starting from
January 1, 2099.
This watch can receive signals that differentiate between
leap years and non-leap years.
Reception stops if an alarm starts to sound while the
signal is being received, and restarts after the alarm
operation is complete.
Even when the watch is within the reception range,
signal reception is impossible if the signal is blocked by
mountains or other geological formations between the
watch and signal source.
Signal reception is affected by weather, atmospheric
conditions, and seasonal changes.
