It is important to configure the correct date and time in the 5X00. Four 10-event
daily timers and four feed timer run based on the 5X00 date and time. Logs record

Notes:
- Changes to Date and Time menus take place immediately and are saved prior
to .
- Configured date and time formats are carried throughout menus and logs.
- Any active (with energized relay) timer system, including 10-event daily
timers, feed timers, and/or dosing timers, are NOT recalculated when the
5X00 time and/or date is changed. Once a timer relay has been energized, it
runs for the duration and does not reset based on changes to the 5X00 date
and time. Example - timer 1, event 1 is configured to come on at 9:00am for
10 minutes. Timer relay energizes at 9:00am. At 9:05am the 5X00 time is
changed to 10:05am (for daylight savings adjustment). The timer relay will
de-energize after five additional minutes. The 5X00 time will be 10:10am. The
event log will reflect the configured 5X00 time when the event occurred. In
this example, 9:00am for the start and 10:10am for the end.
- The time must be manually changed for daylight savings time adjustments.
Daylight savings note: Sensor data log records are not overwritten when the
Configuring the 5X00
clock is changed unless the instrument is power cycled after changing the
data and time. Example - the data log interval is set to 15 minutes. Current
instrument time is 6:00 am. The clock is adjusted to 5:00 am for daylight
savings time. The 5X00 sensor log contains four 15 minute interval records
from 5:00 am to 6:00 am from prior to time change. Sensor data logs are not
overwritten with new values for the repeat of 5:00 am to 6:00 am 15 minute
intervals unless the instrument is power cycled.
- Menu configurations are saved to the system by pressing to return to
the Run Screen and not when the change is made in the menu. Exception -
Date and time and clear data logs are updated immediately to the system, not
when
is pressed.
