The DGy 201x recorder uses an internal real time clock to time stamp

 

TIME COMMANDS

 

 

recordings. This clock can be set manually or can be synchronized

 

 

automatically on a periodic basis to an external time reference. DGy

 

 

201x supports the use of a Network Time Server (using the NTP

 

 

protocol) or as an option may be connected to an IRIG-B time standard.

Command

 

Arguments

Description

 

CurrentTIME

 

[RAW]

Displays currently computed local time of DGy

 

 

 

 

internal clock with the date in mm/dd/yyyy

 

 

 

 

format and time displayed in hh:mm:ss format.

 

 

 

 

The time displayed is the current local time. If

 

 

 

 

the time zone is changed the local time will

 

 

 

 

also be changed.

 

 

 

 

To display the time as an unformatted data

 

 

 

 

string use the optional RAW argument. For

 

 

 

 

example if the current date and time are 3/02/

 

 

 

 

2005 8:01:23, then using the RAW argument

 

 

 

 

DGy will respond with the string

 

 

 

 

2005302080123.

 

RealTimeClockSET

 

<yyyymmddhhmmss>

Sets the internal DGy real time clock. This

 

 

 

 

should only be used if no other method of

 

 

 

 

timesetting is available.

 

TimeZone

 

<-12 ... +12>

Sets the timezone relative to UTC, For

 

 

 

 

example Pacific Standard Time (PSRT) is -8 (8

 

 

 

 

hours behind UTC). DGy must be rebooted

 

 

 

 

before the new time zone takes effect.

 

IRIGMaster

 

<ON OFF>

Configures the IRIG output circuitry. When ON,

 

 

 

 

an IRIG-B timecodes in the DCLS format will

 

 

 

 

be generated on the output based on the

 

 

 

 

current time on the DGy. When OFF, the output

 

 

 

 

will be a loop of the input.

 

IRIGSTandarD

 

[DCLS MOD1K]

The IRIGSTD command is used to set the

 

 

 

 

optional IRIG-B (format B123) input to accept

 

 

 

 

either a DCLS (DC Level shift) or MOD1K

 

 

 

 

(modulated 1kHz) reference signal.

 

 

 

 

Default: DCLS

 

 

 

 

 

 

NTSIP

 

[Network Time Server IP

Sets the IP address of a Network Time Server.

 

 

 

address]

Up to three IP addresses can be set.
