6.2.8 Date and Time

The Date and Time option allows you to set the internal clock of the ECU LAN or synch it with a Network Time
server. If your ECU LAN should suffer a power failure or you need to reboot, and your ECU LAN was ordered without
the Real-Time Clock (RTC) option and the network time option is not enabled, you may have to reset the unit's date
and time. (Most ECU LAN units come standard with a Real-Time Clock, but you may wish to check your build
option to be sure.)
