Clock / Calendar Set (optional) (Cont'd)
If your Model 225 has the date/time option, you may use the Configuration
application to correctly set the clock. There are 2 methods that can be used.
The first and easiest is to use the time of day from the clock in the PC running
the application software. The other requires you to manually choose the month,
day and year as well as specify the time in hours and minutes. Seconds are
force to 0. Use the radio button selector for
Time Source
group and choose
which method is appropriate. Note that when the
Use PC Clock
option is
selected, the
Set Time
field is incrementing as the PC’s clock changes.
Press the
Set Time
button to set the clock in the Model 225. The new time is
transferred and the application checks for the correct settings. Note that the PC
and the Model 225 only measure time to the nearest second. It is quite possible
to have both set the same and have a 1 second error.
The
Features
group at the bottom of this tab has a check box,
Real Time
Clock,
which indicates whether this feature is available. This is an indication
only. Clicking on the check box will not change the optional feature.
