Comments • Before marking times (after every boot-up), the RTC6 and PC times should be
synchronized (see time_update) and the current (to be marked) time should be stored
with time_fix, time_fix_f or time_fix_f_off, see Chapter 7.5 ”Marking Dates, Times
and Serial Numbers”, page 210.
• The complete time can be marked by multiple calls of the mark_time command.
