You will need to observe the following rules while adjusting the time:
l
Internally, the logger always retains its clock in UTC. You cannot adjust the clock
beyond the allowed time zone limit of +15 hours and -12 hours from UTC (these are
the same values you see as allowed time zone values in Control Solutions VTMC
during configuration).
For example, if 13:25 is the currently displayed time, and the logger is configured
with Hawaiian time zone (-10h when in daylight saving), the earliest time would be
11:25 (-12h).
l
You cannot adjust the time across midnight.
l
You will hear three short beeps if you try to increase or decrease the time zone
beyond the allowed limit.
l
An inspection mark is placed in the logged readings, regardless of whether you
adjusted the time zone or not.
l
You cannot use the time zone adjustment to correct small errors in the displayed
time. To do this, please re-configure the unit with Control Solutions VTMC.
NOTE: It is advised that the real time clock is only adjusted when the product is
not recording (
STOPPED
or
READY
) to avoid large shifts in day boundary data.
