16.2.15Real-Time Clock
The RTC6 Ethernet Board features a real-time clock.
If the board is without power, the clock continues to
run for about > 1 week. With a Hardware Reset, this
time is automatically adopted (no time_update
required).
By time_update, the real-time clock is automatically
synchronized with the PC time. The accuracy can be
fine-tuned by time_control_eth.
