What you should doProblem Probable Cause
Signal Reception Troubleshooting
Check the following points whenever you experience problems with signal reception.
Auto receive is
turned on, but
the RCVD
indicator does
not appear on
the display.
• You changed the time setting
manually.
•
The DST setting was changed
manually in the World Time Mode.
• You pressed a button while
signal receive was in progress.
•
Even if receive is successful, the
RCVD indicator will disappear
from the display each day when
the first auto receive operation
of the day is performed.
• Time data (hour, minutes,
seconds) only was received
during the last receive
operation. The RCVD indicator
appears only when time data
and date data (year, month,
day) are both received.
• Perform manual signal receive
or wait until the next auto
signal receive operation is
performed.
• Check to make sure the watch
is in a location where it can
receive the signal.
• For further information, see “Important!” under “Time Calibration Signal Reception”
and “Radio-controlled Atomic Timekeeping Precautions”.
• If the time is one hour off, the
DST setting may be incorrect.
• The Home City code setting is
not correct for the area where
you are using the watch.
• Change the DST setting to
Auto DST.
• Select the correct Home City
code.

Tide/Moon Data
In the Tide/Moon Data Mode, you can see the tide at a specified time for the tide site
you selected and the current date’s moon phase for your Home City. You can specify a
date and view tide and moon data for that date.
• See “Moon Phase Indicator” for information about the moon phase indicator and
“Tide Graph” for information about the tide graph.
• All of the operations in this section are performed in the Tide/Moon Data Mode.
Note
• It takes about two seconds to calculate tide graph data. You will not be able to
display a setting screen while data calculation is in progress.
• Moon age is calculated to an accuracy of ±1 day.
• You can view the current tide and moon age graph in the Timekeeping Mode.
Tide Data
The Tide Graph that appears first when you enter the Tide/Moon Data Mode shows
the data at 6:00 a.m. for your currently selected tide site on the current date, according
to the Timekeeping Mode. From there you can specify another time on the same date.
• If the tide data is not correct, check your Timekeeping Mode settings and correct
them if necessary. See “To configure tide site settings” for more information.
• If you feel that the information shown by the Tide Graph is different from actual tide
conditions, you need to adjust the high tide time. See “Adjusting the High Tide Time”
for more information.
Moon Data
The moon phase and moon age information that appears first when you enter the
Tide/Moon Data Mode shows the data at noon for your currently selected Home City
on the current date, according to the Timekeeping Mode. After that you can specify
another date to view data.
• If the moon data is not correct, check your Timekeeping Mode settings and correct
them if necessary.
• If the moon phase indicator shows a phase that is a mirror image of the actual moon
phase in your area, you can use the procedure under “Reversing the Displayed
Moon Phase” to change it.

You can use the procedure below to reverse the displayed Moon phase so it matches
the actual appearance of the Moon where you are located.
• To determine the viewing direction of the Moon, use a compass to take a direction
reading of the Moon at its meridian passage.

view (indicated by
