Sets the date and time to Jan
01, 2007, 12:00 pm.
Notes:
1. Time is displayed in the 24 hours clock format.
2. Changing the mm/dd/yy format with DATE SEL on the LCD Control menu does not change
the RS-232 mm/dd/yy format.
3. If the Alpha Micro Secure has been in storage or switched off for a prolonged period, the
backup Lithium coin battery could be drained and may not correctly keep a backup of the
date and time you entered. After switching on the Alpha Micro Secure check the date and
time settings. The Alpha Micro Secure should display the current date and time. If it displays
the date as "00:01:00", then the battery is spent and you need to ask a qualified service
personnel to replace the lithium coin battery. See "Troubleshooting".
* Indicates that the Alpha Micro Secure has responded to the command you entered.
† If the date or time change is invalid, the Alpha Micro Secure will return the time and date it
was set to before you tried making the change. The date and time must be entered as one com-
plete line command. You cannot change only the time or the date alone. Both must be set at the
same time. If you make a mistake, press Enter and try again.
