ings time, when configured. The unit time and date is set at the
factory based in the Eastern Time Zone.

TIME/DATE BROADCAST — The 30MP unit controls
have the ability to broadcast the time and date on the network.
If the CCN Time/Date Broadcast configuration Configura-
tion
BCST
T.D.BC=ON, the control will send the time and
date out onto the CCN bus once a minute. If this device is on a
CCN network, it is important to make sure that only one
device on the bus has this configuration set to ON. If more
than one time broadcaster is present, problems with the time
will occur. If the unit is installed on a network, another unit
must be configured to be Broadcast Acknowledger, Configu-
ration
BCST
BC.AK. Only one unit can be the Broadcast
Acknowledger. See Table 17 for required configurations.
DAYLIGHT SAVINGS TIME — The 30MP controls have
the ability to automatically adjust the time for daylight savings
time. To utilize this feature, several items must be configured,
including a start date and time to add as well as an end date.
All items are found in the Daylight Saving Time sub-mode,
Time Clock
DST and the Broadcast sub-mode, Configura-
tion
BCST. See Table 18 for required configurations.
NOTE: Only the time and date broadcaster can perform day-
light savings time adjustments. Even if the unit is stand-alone,
the user may want to set Configuration
BCST
T.D.BC to
ON to accomplish the daylight savings function. To disable the
daylight savings time feature, set T.D.BC to OFF.
