_setlocaltime
_setlocaltime
Description
Allows the user to set the printer’s internal real-time clock via PAL commands.
Usage
TimeArray _setlocaltime
TimeArray Array. Contains the new time information in a format compatible with the time
information returned by the _localtime operator.
[ AvailBool TotalInt YearInt MonthInt DayInt HourInt MinInt SecInt Sec100Int
DOYInt DOWInt ZoneNum SaveInt ]
AvailBool Boolean. true if TimeArray actually contains values available for
recording into the printer’s real-time clock electronics. false if the
printer should not record the values in TimeArray to the clock
electronics.
TotalInt Integer. Any non-negative value. The _setlocaltime operator only
requires a non-negative value for this value. The operator does not use
this value when setting the clock electronics. Required only for
compatibility with _localtime.
YearInt Integer. 1970..2970. The _setlocaltime operator uses this value to set
the current year within the printer’s clock electronics.
MonthInt Integer. 1..12. The _setlocaltime operator uses this value to set the
current month or the year within the printer’s clock electronics.
DayInt Integer. 1..31. The _setlocaltime operator uses this value to set the
current day of the month within the printer’s clock electronics.
HourInt Integer. 0..23. The _setlocaltime operator uses this value to set the
current hour of the day within the printer’s clock electronics.
MinInt Integer. 0..59. The _setlocaltime operator uses this value to set the
current minute of the hour within the printer’s clock electronics.
SecInt Integer. 0..59. The _setlocaltime operator uses this value to set the
current second of the minute within the printer’s clock electronics.
Sec100Int Integer. 0..99. The _setlocaltime operator uses this value to set the
current hundredth of the second within the printer’s clock electronics.
Not all PAL printer models support time resolution to within 1/100 of a
second. The user should consult documentation specific to each printer
model to determine the various resolutions supported.
DOYInt Integer. 1..366 or 0. Not used to set clock electronics. Required for
compatibility with _localtime.
