5.8.7 Time and Date Settings
Access to the Time and Date CONFIG mode items is permitted only when the EXPERT ACCESS flag is
set. Time and Date are only used in track modes, therefore this section may be ignored for the RC2500A
controller.
ENTER TIME (HH.MM.SS): 08.46.00 CONFIG
USE 0-9 OR . ENT,BKSP,SCRLL ^v
The real-time clock must be set to establish a time reference for all tracking data stored in the controller.
Enter the local time using the 0-9 keys and the . key to separate the hours, minutes, and seconds fields.
Each field must have two digits entered; i.e., 8 must be entered as 08 or the unit will not accept the entry.
The time cannot be changed for daylight-savings time purposes once valid track data is stored, or the unit
will not function properly.
