Hello,

We have a button that shows the current system time, but we would like to offer the possibility to change this time.

So i?d like to know if there is a way to change the system time through NetLinx code.

Thanks!!

    I would go no further than AMX-PI 
    SEND_COMMANDs:

 

   "'CLOCK <mm-dd-yyyy> <hh:mm:ss>'"

      Set the date and time on the Master. The date and time settings are propagated 

      over the local bus.

 

      Syntax: 

            SEND_COMMAND <DEV>,"'CLOCK <mm-dd-yy> <hh:mm:ss>'"

 

      Variable:

            mm-dd-yy = Month, day, and year. Month and day have 2 significant digits.

                                             Year has 4 significant digits.

            hh-mm-ss = Hour, minute, and seconds. Each using only 2 significant digits.

 

      Example:

            SEND_COMMAND RS232_1,"'CLOCK 04-12-05 09:45:31'"

            Sets the Masters date to April 12, 2005, and time to 9:45 am.
