Setting the Module Date

NOTE: If the 6C105 or 6C107 chassis has been assigned a chassis date, it is not
necessary to assign a module date to the switch module. All installed modules
recognize the chassis date.
The switch module is year 2000 compliant so that the Module Date field can be set beyond the
year 1999.
To set the system date, perform the following steps:
1. Use the arrow keys to highlight the Module Date field.
2. Enter the date in this format: MM/DD/YYYY
NOTE: It is not necessary to add separators between month, day, and year numbers, as
long as each entry has the correct number of numeric characters. For example, to set
the date to 03/17/2000, type "03172000" in the Module Date field.
3. Press ENTER to set the system calendar to the date in the input field.
4. Use the arrow keys to highlight the SAVE command at the bottom of the screen and press
ENTER.
If the date entered is a valid format, the message displays "SAVED OK" at the top of the screen. If
the entry is not valid, Local Management does not alter the current value, but it does refresh the
Module Date field with the previous value.
