—Baud rate Sets the rate in bits per second1 for RS-232 remote control. The serial format is always 8 bits, no parity, one stop bit (8N1). See section 6, System Level functions.

—Set time ZephyrExpress’ clock will keep track of the time and date in US or European styles, depending on how you enter it. To set the clock, se- lect this item and enter the current date and time according to the in- structions below. Hours are in military (24-hour) format. You may enter the year as two digits if you prefer; the Y2K rollover is hardly relevant to ZephyrExpress. You may omit entering the seconds if you prefer.

To set the clock for US-style dates, enter the date and time using this format. The pound sign — # — is used as the separator.

mm#dd#yyyy#hh#mm#ss For example, 1:00 PM on De- cember 25, 1999, would be entered as 12#25#1999#13#00#00, or

— if you shorten the year and omit the seconds — as 12#25#99#13#00.

To set the clock for European-style dates, enter the date and time using this format. The star sign — * — is used as the separator:

dd*mm*yyyy*hh*mm*ss For example, 11:30 AM on Janu- ary 5, 2000, would be entered as 05*01*2000*11*30*00, or — if you shorten the year and omit the seconds — as 05*01*00*11*30.

—Software The first four choices of this item are used when installing new soft- ware versions. See section 6, System Functions, or the instructions that are shipped with the software.

This item also includes two choices for resetting ZephyrExpress in case of system problems:

Reboot — This reloads the software without restarting the hardware (“warm boot”).

Hart Reset — This restarts the hardware and reloads the software (“cold boot”).

1Most people confuse Baud rate, used in low-speed modems, with bits per second. But they’re not the same thing. Bits per second is correct in this application — goodness, you’d expect us to know that — but we couldn’t fit it on the LCD.
