Displaying the Date, Time or Temperature

Use a TEXT frame to display the current time, date or temperature. The time and date is taken from

To show the current time, enter the following syntax or combination of:

~h =hour

~M=minutes
~S=seconds

~a =am/pm

Note: To show the proper time format, type in a colon (:) after the hour and leave a space between

minutes and am/pm. Example: ~h:~m ~a displays 4:18 pm

To show the current date, enter the following syntax:

~m =month

~d =day of the month

~y = year

Note: To show the proper date format, the user must insert a backward slash (/) between the

parameters. Example: ~m/~d/~y displays 03/17/03 for March 17

th

of the year 2003.

~H

displays hours in 24 hour format

displays hours in 12 hour format
