FAQs
- Q: What is a DCF77 receiver and how does it work?
A: The DCF77 receiver synchronises digital time switches with the official German time signal, automatically correcting for drift and daylight-saving time changes. - Q: Are DIN-rail and panel-mount accessories universal?
A: Most mounting accessories are designed specifically for GIC or Hugo Müller models but follow standard DIN and panel dimensions for broad compatibility.
