4.2 SETTING THE SYSTEM DATE
To set the system date, perform the following steps:
1. Use the arrow keys to highlight the System Date field.
2. Enter the date in a MM/DD/YY format.
3. Press ENTER to set the system calendar.
4. Use the arrow keys to highlight the SAVE command field at the
bottom of the screen and press ENTER.
If the date entered was a valid format, the Event Message field at the
top of the screen displays “SAVED OK”. If the entry was not valid,
Local Management does not alter the current value and refreshes the
System Date field with the previous value.
NOTE
When entering the date in the system date field, you do not
need to add separators between month, day, and year
numbers, as long as each entry uses two decimal numbers.
For example, to set the date to 03/17/96, type “031796” in the
System Date field.
