Setting the local time via soft key (only for single-processor control)
Press the MOD key in the Programming and Editing mode of operation to
display the SET DATE/TIME soft key. After pressing this soft key, the
following window in which you can enter the current local time appears. If you
make any changes to these settings, the control must be restarted.
Set the time zone for the control to automatically switch between standard
and daylight-saving time.
Module 9195 System time
At the factory, the system time of the iTNC is set to Central European Time or
Central European Summer Time in the BIOS. The iTNC internally operates
with UNIX system time. The UNIX system time contains the number of
seconds accumulated since 0:00 hours on January 1, 1970. The iTNC
calculates from the system time (BIOS) to the UNIX system time.
Enter the current local time via the SET DATE/TIME soft key so that the
program manager time matches the local time.
With Module 9195 you can read the current value of the UNIX system time.
The value read with Module 9195 is independent of the indicated local time
and always refers to Universal Time (Greenwich time).
