Procedure:

3. Press the "Date/Time" softkey.
The "Date/Time" window opens.
4. Select the required formats for the date and time in the "Format" field.
5. Confirm the entry with the "OK" softkey.
The new date and time details are accepted and output on the first line in the "current" fields.
Note
Synchronization of time
The SINAMICS drives have no real-time clock. The time of day and date of the SINAMICS
clock are synchronized in a 10-second cycle with the SINUMERIK real-time clock.
The result is that after a change of the date and/or the clock of the SINUMERIK real-time clock
up to 10 seconds expire until this change has been synchronized with the SINAMICS drives.
If, in this period of up to 10 seconds, SINAMICS alarms occur (alarm numbers 200000 -
299999), these SINAMICS alarms still receive the outdated date / time stamp. The SINUMERIK
alarms (alarm numbers < 200000 and > 300000) triggered as a result of the SINAMICS alarms,
on the other hand, already receive the new date/time stamp.
