Setting the date and time

You can set the date in the form YY/MM/DD (year/month/day). Set the lower two
digits for the year. Set 00 to 98 for years 2000 to 2098, and 99 for the year 1999.
• Setting the time
You can set the time in the form HH : MM : SS (hour : minute : second). The hour
is set using a 24-hour clock.
Confirming the new settings
When the date/time is turned ON/OFF, it is immediately reflected on the screen.
However, if you are changing the date and time, you must confirm the new settings. If
you do not (abort the operation), the new settings will not take effect.
Note
•
The date and time information is backed up with the lithium battery when the power is turned
OFF.
•
The instrument contains leap year information. The instrument determines the leap year
calendar when the new settings are confirmed. If you enter [2/29] on a non-leap year, an
error message will be displayed.
