DMC-40x0 Command Reference TIME • 233
TIME
FUNCTION: Time Operand (Keyword)
DESCRIPTION:
The TIME operand returns the value of the internal free running, real time clock. The returned
value represents the number of servo loop updates and is based on the TM command. The
default value for the TM command is 1000. With this update rate, the operand TIME will
increase by 1 count every update of approximately 1000usec. Note that a value of 1000 for
the update rate (TM command) will actually set an update rate of 976 microseconds. Thus the
value returned by the TIME operand will be off by 2.4% of the actual time.
The clock is reset to 0 with a standard reset or a master reset.
The keyword, TIME, does not require an underscore "_" as does the other operands.
