field to enter the system date in the field.
The dates are entered in the

field in the same way as the time is entered in
the
System Time
field. This field also has three separate sub-fields for month, day, and
year enclosed in brackets [xx/xx/xxxx].
8. Type in the month and press the
Enter
key to move to the Ddy field.
9. Then type in the day and press the
