The clock forgets the time as soon as power is lost, but it can be set using a DCC controller.

screen you can give them all the same clock setting address so they can all easily be set together.

Setting the clock time
The clock is set using a different loco address from the main screen - the default address is 56.
Clock setting has a separate address so that you can have multiple Smart Screens on a layout
whose main messages and controls can be set individually, but the clocks can all be set at the
same time because they can share the same address. See above to change set clock address.
1
To set the time, first set your DCC controller to the loco address of the set clock (default 56).

To set the time use the Function keys to enter the time as a 4 digit number
(24hr clock format)
.
Eg to set the time to 08:52 press Function keys F0 F8 F5 F2
note you

enter 4 digits
Important
: Note that the F0 button is marked as a Lamp
on some controllers
• To make time display the same on every power up, enter time as above then press F5 F5 F5 F5
• The clock keeps reasonable accuracy over a day, but if on continuously will need to be corrected
