IMPORTANT
Resetting the clock can affect the storage schedule of a unit in service.
If the clock is set back more than 5 minutes, the following actions will take place:
Data in storage buffers will be copied to the floppy disk and the buffers will then be cleared.
Data collection for storage will stop until the operator reinitializes the schedule.
If the clock is set back less than 5 minutes, collection of data storage and trends will stop until the setback time
elapses and the clock "catches up" with the original collection schedule. A warning prompt will appear on the
display before these actions occur. You can then cancel the clock change if desired.
