TIME COMMANDS
The DGy 201x 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
201x 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 6-9 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.
IRIGMaster <ON | OFF> Configures the IRIG output circuitry. When ON,
an IRIG-B timecodes in the DCLS format will
be generated on the output based on the
current time on the DGy. When OFF, the output
will be a loop of the input.
IRIGSTandarD [DCLS | MOD1K] The IRIGSTD 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.
Default: DCLS
NTSIP [Network Time Server IP
address]
Sets the IP address of a Network Time Server.
Up to three IP addresses can be set.
