4.13 TIME AND DATE
4.13.1 SETTING THE TIME AND DATE
NOTE: Care should be taken when the system is networked, because changing the time/date af-
fects the time for the entire system. The appropriate authority should give approval before the time
and date is changed.
To set the time and date:
1. Select Time and Date from the Program menu option. The Time and Date window (illustrated
in figure 4-13) will appear.
2. Alter the time and date by clicking on < or > located below each option. This is a 24 hour
clock. If it is 8 o’clock in the evening (8.00 p.m.), enter 20:00:00.
3. When the correct time and date has been entered, click Set.
The new time and date will be updated on all equipment in the system. It may take up to one minute for
these changes to be updated on monitors.
NOTE: If an impossible date or time is entered, the system will either beep and prompt you to enter
the information again, or it may accept the command but not update the time and date on the sys-
tem.

face unit (illustrated by VCR 2 in figure 1-27 in the 2030 manual).
