6.9.6 Configuration – Real Time Clock
The AWR has an integrated Real Time Clock. As long as there is a battery
inside the reader, the clock will not lose its time. If the battery is completely
empty or it was removed for a longer time, the clock has to be set again in order
to show and save the correct time. The index “Real Time Clock” in the AWR
demosoftware can be used for setting the clock.
The button “Sync.” will take the
system time from the PC and set it
as the current time for the AWR Real
Time Clock. You may also enter time
and date in the appropriate text-
boxes manually and press “set”, the
button “get” requests the currently
used time from the reader.
6.9.7 Configuration – Memory
In the “None Storage Mode” the AWR will not save the collected data in its
internal memory. This is useful for applications, where only an “Online” data
transmission is required and the data are saved externally anyway (e.g. using a
PDA connected via Bluetooth). Thus it is also not necessary, to clear the
memory at all. In order to use the AWR in Non Storage Mode, activate the
corresponding checkbox and press “set”.
The “Transmit year” setting decides whether to download the year from the
saved datasets or not. In older firmware versions, the year was not saved in the
datasets, although the internal Real Time Clock has the possibility. Now it is
possible to download the year as well but the downloaded datasets are longer,
which could be a problem for already existing management software. For
compatibility reasons, the default setting is “not active”. In order to download the
year in the timestamp for each dataset as well, check “Active” and apply with
“set”.
