Chapter 18 Time / Date Setup (OPTION) Technical Reference Manual
P510.XX Style
This parameter provides the time and date format you
desire, either USA (MO/DA/YR) or International (DA/
MO/YR). The selection made here does not affect the
printing of time and date since print format is specified
with the format entry during the Custom Transmit setup.
P511.XX RtDsp
This parameter provides five selections for the recall
display. P511.00 selects Time and Date, P511.01 selects
time only, P511.02 selects date only, and P511.03 selects
number.
P512.XX A1Dsp
This parameter provides five selections for the Alarm #1
display. P512.00 selects Time and Date, P512.01 selects
time only, P512.02 selects date only, and P512.03 selects
number.
P513 through P515
This parameter provide five selections each for the
Alarms #2 thru #4. Setup is identical to P512.
18.3 Alarms
Setting Alarms (P504 - P509)
P504.XX A1Sel
This parameter sets the operating conditions for the first
alarm. The available choices are: off, intvl, and daily.
Off is the default selection which means the alarm is not
used. Interval means that the alarm will be executed on
an interval basis, such as every 5 seconds, every 17
seconds, or every 2 hrs and 20 minutes. The start of the
interval is at midnight of each day. If the desired interval
does not divide evenly into a 24 hour period, the second
alarm after midnight will be closer to the previous alarm
than is normal. The daily selection actuates the alarm at a
certain time of the day, every day. This feature may be
useful for performing certain operations once a day,
perhaps at shift change, such as clearing totals or
counters. If Alarm 1 is used it will automatically invoke
Macro 12.
P505.SS A1Tim
This parameter specifies the interval or the time of day
for Alarm 1. This is entered as h.m or h.m.s for hours,
minutes and seconds. For example: 0.0.10 for a 10
second interval, 0.3 for a 3 minute interval, or 8.0.0 for
an 8:00 am alarm. Enter the desired value and press
<ENTER>.
P506.XX A2Sel
This parameter specifies the use of Alarm 2, with the
same choices as P504. If Alarm 2 is used it will
automatically invoke Macro 13.
P507.SS A2Tim
This parameter specifies the time for Alarm 2, which is
set in a similar fashion as P505. Enter the desired value
and press <ENTER>.
P508.XX A3Sel
This parameter specifies the use of Alarm 3, with the
same choices as P504. If Alarm 3 is used it will
automatically invoke Macro 14.
P509.SS A3Tim
This parameter specifies the time for Alarm 3, and is set
in a similar fashion as P505. Enter the desired value and
press <ENTER>.
Naming Alarms (P650 - P654)
P650. - - Rtime
This parameter sets the naming parameters for recalled
time. Entry is the same procedure as for P701.
P651. - - A1Tim
This parameter sets the naming paramaters for Alarm #1.
Entry is the same procedure as for P701.
P652 thru P654
These parameters set the naming paramaters for Alarms
#2 thru #4. Entry is the same procedure as for P701.

When alphabetic and other non-numeric characters are
being entered into the 574, the <UP ARROW>
