Chassis Configuration Screen
4-8 Chassis Menu Screens
4.2.4 Setting the Chassis Time
To set the chassis clock, perform the following steps:
1. Use the arrow keys to highlight the Chassis Time field.
2. Enter the time in this 24-hour format: HH:MM:SS
3. Press ENTER to set the system clock to the time in the input field.
4. Use the arrow keys to highlight the SAVE command at the bottom of the screen and press
ENTER.
If the time entered is a valid format, the Event Message Line at the top of the screen displays
“SAVED OK”. If the entry is not valid, Local Management does not alter the current value and
refreshes the Chassis Time field with the previous value.
4.2.5 Setting a New Screen Refresh Time
The screen refresh time is set from 3 to 99 seconds with a default of 3 seconds. To set a new screen
refresh time, perform the following steps:
1. Use the arrow keys to highlight the Screen Refresh Time field.
2. Enter a number from 3 to 99.
3. Press ENTER to set the refresh time to the time entered in the input field.
4. Use the arrow keys to highlight the SAVE command at the bottom of the screen and press
ENTER.
If the time entered is within the 3 to 99 seconds range, the Event Message Line at the top of the
screen displays “SAVED OK”. If the entry is not valid, Local Management does not alter the
current setting, but it does refresh the Screen Refresh Time field with the previous value, and the
valid range will be displayed.
NOTE: When entering the time in the system time field, separators between hours,
minutes, and seconds do not need to be added as long as each entry uses two numeric
characters. For example, to set the time to 6:45 A.M., type “064500” in the Chassis Time
field.
NOTE: Upon saving the new chassis time, all interface modules installed in the chassis
recognize the new value as the current time.
