4.3 Hardware System Clock
This equipment has a hardware system clock that uses an RTC (real-time clock) IC.
The clock has a built-in calendar and continues to work using a backup battery even when the
system power is off.
For your information, the system program normally updates the internal clock by using a
periodic timer. The internal clock is adjusted by reading the time and date from the hardware
clock when, for example, the system starts.
