LCL Local Time Zone (user-defined)
You will be able to change the time zone any time you desire on
several other pages, so don’t worry if you’re not sure which time
zone to choose. UTC—Coordinated Universal Time (also called
“Zulu”) is always a safe choice.
The local time zone (LCL) is selected on the SET 2 page, and is
defined to be a certain time offset from Zulu (UTC).
Once you have selected the desired time zone, position the cur-
sor over the entire time field and
select the correct hour with the
right inner knob (figure 3-14).
Since 24 hour time is used, be
sure to add 12 if the time is after
1:00 P.M. (2:30 P.M. becomes
1430). Now move the cursor to
the tens of minutes position and select the desired value, and
repeat this process for the last digit of the time field. When the
correct time has been entered (figure 3-15), press F to start
the clock running. Don’t worry
that you can’t update the
seconds. The KLN 89(B) system
time will automatically be correct-
ed very precisely once a satellite
is received.
