TIME COMMAND DESCRIPTIONS
The DGy 201 recorder uses an internal real time clock to time stamp
recordings. This clock can be set manually or can be synchronized
automatically on a periodic basis to an external time reference. DGy 201
supports the use of a Network Time Server (using the NTP protocol) or
as an option may be connected to an IRIG-B time standard.
Table 6-13. Time Commands
Command Arguments Description
CurrentTIME [RAW] Displays currently computed local time of DGy
internal clock with the date in mm/dd/yyyy format
and time displayed in hh:mm:ss format. The time
displayed is the current local time. If the time
zone is changed the local time will also be
changed.
To display the time as an unformatted data string
use the optional RAW argument. For example if
the current date and time are 3/02/2005 8:01:23,
then using the RAW argument DGy will respond
with the string 2005302080123.
RealTimeClockSET <yyyymmddhhmmss> Sets the internal DGy real time clock. This should
only be used if no other method of timesetting is
available.
TimeZone <-12 ... +12> Sets the timezone relative to UTC, For example
Pacific Standard Time (PSRT) is -8 (8 hours
behind UTC). DGy must be rebooted before the
new time zone takes effect.
IRIGSTandarD [DCLS | MOD1K] The IRIGSTandard command is used to set the
optional IRIG-B (format B123) input to accept
either a DCLS (DC Level shift) or MOD1K
(modulated 1kHz) reference signal.
Factory default: DCLS
NTSIP {Network Time Server
IP address}

to three IP addresses can be set.
