Setting The Internal Clock - Roland VS-1824 Owner's Manual

Chapter 2 Basic Operation

Setting the Internal Clock

The VS-1824 features an internal clock. When you record a
performance, a time stamp consisting of the time, day, and
month of recording is entered automatically. This allows you
to organize recordings by day, time, and order. Use the
following procedure to set the time and date in your VS-1824.
* The internal clock is battery-powered. Once you set this, the
values are remembered each time you turn the VS-1824 off.
However, if for any reason the time setting is in error, use the
same steps to reset the clock.
