Setting the Date and Time

Main Menu -> Administration -> Set Date and Time

When the library is initially set up, or if it has been disconnected for more than eight days, you need to set the date and time. If the date and time are not set, logs will not include date and time stamps. To set the date and time, enter the Administration menu. If you want to only view the date and time, enter the

Information menu.

To set the date and time:

1.Enter the Set Date & Time menu.

2.Use the [-]or [+] keys to select the year, month, and day. Use the [->]to scroll to the next entry when complete.

3.Set the hour and minutes (00:00:00) using the [+] or [-]keys. Use the [->]key to scroll over to the next selection. The seconds are automatically set at 00.

4.Use the [-]or [+] keys to select the time zone. UTC stands for Coordinated Universal Time. (See Table 16 on page 109.) This will keep your host time and library time synchronized.

5.Press [OK] to save your changes. Press [Quit] to exit this menu and not save your changes.

Note

The time does not automatically adjust for time changes such as

 

daylight savings time and is accurate to within one hour per

 

year. Occasional adjustment is normal.
