Note
READ_RTCX, SET_RTCX programming tips
These instructions do not accept Invalid dates. If you enter February 30, for example, a time-
of-day non-fatal error occurs (0007H).
Do not use the READ_RTCX / SET_RTCX instructions in both the main program and in an
interrupt routine. A READ_RTCX / SET_RTCX instruction in an interrupt routine cannot
execute while another READ_RTCX / SET_RTCX instruction is executing. In this case, the
CPU sets system flag bit SM4.3, indicating that two simultaneous accesses to the clock were
attempted resulting in a T data error (non-fatal error 0007H).
The time-of-day clock in the CPU uses only the least significant two digits for the year, so 00
represents the year 2000. User programs that use the year's value must take into account
the two-digit representation.
The CPU handles leap year correctly through year 2099.

Description
T
The Read real-time clock extended instruction reads the current time, date, and
daylight saving configuration from the PLC and loads it in a 19-byte buffer begin-
ning at the address assigned by T.
T
The Set real-time clock instruction writes a new time, date, and daylight saving
configuration to the PLC using the 19-byte buffer data that is assigned by byte
address T.
