If daylight saving is required, enter the settings (see next page) before setting the time and date as the operation of the internal clock is affected by the daylight saving settings.
The date and time cannot be adjusted if recording is enabled during configuration, i.e the 'Disable recording in configuration' check box is not ticked on entry to the Configuration level – see Fig. 7.2, page 67.
Changes to the date and time are effective immediately upon selecting 'OK' in the dialog box. Select 'Cancel' in the dialog box to exit date and time setup without saving changes. Selecting 'Cancel' upon exiting Configuration Mode (see Fig. 7.7, page 73) does not reset the clock to its previous setting.
Setting an earlier date or time results in the loss of all data currently in the internal buffer memory past that date. Data archived to external media is unaffected. If an earlier time must be set, change the Instrument Tag (see page 74). This causes new archive files to be created and the duplicated hour of data is then saved to the new files.
Time changes due to automatic daylight saving do not affect the recorded data.
Archive files created during the daylight saving period (see Section 7.7.4, page 90) are compatible with the database feature of Version 6.2 (or later) only of the Company's DataManager data analysis software package.
If the status icon is displayed the clock battery must be replaced – contact factory.
