Editing the Time and Date

After reading the time from the S7-200 CPU, the cursor is placed on the
day-of-the-month field.
To change the time and date, perform the following steps.
1. Use the UP and DOWN arrows to increment or decrement the field under the
cursor.
2. Press ENTER when the value is correct. The cursor then moves to the next
field.
Note
Pressing ENTER when the cursor is on the day-of-the-week field writes the new
time and date to the CPU.
Pressing ESC at any time aborts the edit, rereads the time from the CPU, and
returns the cursor to the day field.
Pressing ESC with the cursor on the day field returns you to the Display Message
mode.

The TD200 does not check for illegal dates. Illegal dates can be written to the
CPU.

If you have selected Chinese for the language, the date is displayed as
