How to MANUALLY set Date and Time, Format, and Time Zone
Because of licensing security, the manual and GPS Sync methods to set
Date and Time are restricted as follows:
Can be set backward no more than 5 hours at a time.
Can be set forward any amount of time.
Can be set backward or forward no more than once in a day. A new day
begins at midnight.
There is no restriction for setting the Time Zone.
To change the Date and Time backward a significant amount, send an email to
ctd-soco_support@keysight.com
.
BEFORE manually setting the Date and Time, be absolutely certain that the
Time Zone setting is correct.
