Configuring the R&S ZVH

Quick Start Guide 1309.6900.12 - 06

1.6.4 Configuring Date and Time

The R&S ZVH has an internal clock that can apply a date and time stamp. In the
"Instrument Setup" dialog box, you can set both date and time.

Setting the date

► In the "Instrument Setup" dialog box, select the "Set Date" item.

► Press the ENTER key.

The R&S ZVH asks you to confirm a change of the date.

► Enter the date you want with the numeric keys. The sequence depends on the

selected date format.

► Confirm the entry with the ENTER key.

Setting the time

► In the "Instrument Setup" dialog box, select the "Set Time" item.

► Press the ENTER key.

► Enter the time you want with the numeric keys.

► Confirm the entry with the ENTER key.

After you have entered the time, the R&S ZVH verifies the validity of the time. If it is not
a valid time, it sets the next valid time.

Selecting the time zone

► In the "Instrument Setup" dialog box, select the "Time Zone" item.

► Press the ENTER key.

► Enter a positive or negative time offset relative to the system time with the numeric

keys.

► Confirm the entry with the ENTER key.

After you have confirmed the time zone, the R&S ZVH adjusts the displayed time
accordingly, without changing the system time.
