F3 – Time & Date
Use function F3 to set the XLi system clock's time and date. If the XLi is using GPS as its primary
reference source, setting F3 manually is unnecessary. Following startup, the XLi synchronizes its time
and date to the GPS reference source
F3 to set the time for the IEEE 1588 option card.
F3 prompts the user for the Time Mode, the Date in mm/dd/yyyy format, and the Time in hh:mm:ss
format. The hours in hh:mm:ss should be given using 24-hour notation (e.g., 6 pm = 18:00).
1. Normally, with the factory configured settings and a good GPS antenna placement.
