Example 1: Editing the system time and date parameter settings.
If your RFL 9780 is connected to an IRIG-B generator, its system clock is being automatically
synchronized to the IRIG-B time clock, and no manual setting is required except for year. If you are not
using an IRIG-B generator, use the following procedure to set the RFL 9780's system clock (note that
the time and date values entered will not take effect until stored using the “SV” command):
1. Enter the number for the Date parameter (52) on your terminal or PC keyboard, and then press
the [ENTER] key.
The Date parameter will be displayed, with information about its setting below it.
052 Date 05/24/1999
[mm/dd/(yy)yy]> _
2. Type in the current date (in “mm/dd/(yy)yy format), and then press the [ENTER] key.
The Year parameter will be re-displayed, set to the new value.
052 Date 05/25/1999
IRIG-B values will override entry here
Note the message that the IRIG-B input can override the manually entered date (other than year,
which is not a part of the IRIG-B data).
3. Enter the number for the Time parameter (51) on your terminal or PC keyboard, and then press
the [ENTER] key.
The Time parameter will be displayed, with information about its setting below it.
