Setting the date/time on BrightSign (HD2000 only)

BrightSign HD2000 has a real-time clock that you can use to schedule content playback. In order
to use the scheduling features, you must first set the date and time on BrightSign.
BrightSign has written a script that provides an interactive means for setting the date/time on
BrightSign. The script is named SETDATETIME.BAS and is available at
www.brightsign.biz/support
Instructions for using the date/time script:
Go to
