How to change time in koden machine

1 comments:
Mr. Anderson
March 20, 2025

To change the time on a Koden CVR-010 machine:

1. Open the CLOCK PRESET submenu by selecting “5:CLOCK PRESET” from the menu.
2. Enter the current date in Day/Month/Year (DD/MM/YY) format.
3. Enter the current time in 24-hour (hh:mm:ss) format.
4. Use the arrow keys (↑/↓) to move the highlight to the character to be edited.
5. Use the arrow keys (←/→) to modify the highlighted character.
6. Ensure the correct UTC time offset is set before connecting a GPS sensor to avoid incorrect date/time readings.
7. Confirm the changes.

This process updates the system’s date and time settings.
