Hi,

I have bought DFC77 and set the computer to use it. Also I put to location field ( Helsinki, Finland ) coordinates. However computer shows time now in one hour behind Finnish time. How can I use DFC77 and choose different timezone ?

Hello,
the DCF-receiver is only for the use in Germany. It gets its signal from Frankfurt.
So it always receives the German time and there is no way to change this
(the coordinates you can fill in are not intended for the DCF-receiver but for other simulation purposes).

Hi,

I understand that you can't change the time signal which you get from DFC77 time standard. However we have here in finland watches and clocks which are locked to DFC77 time standard and these allow you to put offset ( adjust clock to few hours ahead or after german time ) and they are still locked to DFC77.

Would it be possible to add this kind of feature to profilux software also ?

Thank you, hopefully you can add this feature sometimes in the future.
