PC Time
Sets the camera RTC clock to the time
from the PC clock.
Advanced…
Allows user to manually set the IRIG and
RTC clocks in the camera. See Section
4.2.2.1
NOTE:
The A6600 has two internal clocks: a Real Time Clock (RTC) and a timestamp clock. The RTC is a low
resolution clock used to keep system time. The RTC has a battery backup and will retain time while the camera is
off. The timestamp clock is a high resolution clock (1us). This clock does not have a battery backup but at power
up the timestamp clock is initialized to the current RTC time and will free-wheel until the camera is power cycled.
