108 Setting the Date and Time Chapter 3
Setting the Date and Time
When the library is initially set up, or if it has been disconnected for more than
eight days, you need to set the date and time. If the date and time are not set,
logs will not include date and time stamps. To set the date and time, enter the
Administration menu. If you want to only view the date and time, enter the
Information menu.
To set the date and time:
1. Enter the
Set Date & Time menu.
2. Use the
[-] or [+] keys to select the year, month, and day. Use the [->] to
scroll to the next entry when complete.
3. Set the hour and minutes (00:00:00) using the
[+] or [-] keys. Use the [->]
key to scroll over to the next selection. The seconds are automatically set at
00.
4. Use the
[-] or [+] keys to select the time zone. UTC stands for Coordinated
Universal Time. (See Table 16 on page 109.) This will keep your host
time and library time synchronized.
5. Press [OK] to save your changes. Press [Quit] to exit this menu and not save
your changes.
Note The time does not automatically adjust for time changes such as
daylight savings time and is accurate to within one hour per
year. Occasional adjustment is normal.
