Programming The System Time And Date; Programming The System Time - Northern Telecom Meridian 1 Installation And Maintenance Manual

Programming the system time and date

The Meridian Companion system maintains its own time and date rather than
using the Meridian 1 time and date. It is important that the time and date be
correct for event and alarm messages.
An idle Administration Terminal displays the current system time and date
when it is functioning properly. Portable telephones do not display time and
date.
Program the time and date as soon as the system is operating, and adjust the
time and date whenever necessary. The time should be reset after the yearly
switches to and from daylight savings time so that system messages have the
correct time and date. It is also necessary to reprogram the time (and other
settings) if the CMCC has been powered down for maintenance or for any
other reason.
