Setting/Adjusting the Real-Time Clock

The real-time clock is used to time-stamp events recorded in the event log and for scheduling mode. The
time display can be set for 12 (AM/PM) or 24-hour format, and can show day/month or month/day (field
*183, Time/Date Format). If the system is using the built-in crystal for the real-time clock (field *181,
50/60Hz AC Operation) synchronization, a plus/minus adjustment may be required to account for
crystal frequency variation. This adjustment is only needed if the frequency control of AC mains is not
accurately maintained by the local mains electrical power provider.
To set and adjust the clock: user code +[#] + [6] [3].
