Function 2, tube diameter, is entered under the respective drives by entering F41 and drive
number. In this way the last drive may carry out only a small part of the total fill, providing a
small tube is selected for this drive.
6.7.32. Function 42 - Set date
The MC12 has a built-in electronic clock and calendar. With Function 42 the date can be set
in the following format: YY/MM/DD
YY = the year from 00 - 99
MM = the month from 01 - 12
DD = the day of the month from 01 - 31
The date is entered by first entering the year, then the month and finally the day.
Example: <4>+<2>+<ENT>+<1>+<2<ENT>+<0>+<7+ENT>+<1+<8> =2012-07-18
By pressing <ENT> the new date will be stored in the system.
The system calculates automatically the days of the month. If the date 07/06/31 is entered by
mistake, the system will correct the date when the clock changes from 23/59/59 to 00/00/00.
The system does NOT take Summer Time (daylight savings time) into account.
