Memory sampling

The FX internal clock is gradually corrected. While the time is being

gradually adjusted, the date/time in the status display section is

displayed in yellow.

Operation of Gradually Correcting the Internal Clock

If the time deviation between the time of the FX internal clock and the correct time (the

specified time) is within a specified value, the FX clock is adjusted gradually at a rate
of 40 ms per second. Otherwise, the clock is corrected immediately. The maximum
value of time deviation (tm in the figure below) can be selected in the range of 10 s to
5 min. However, if the clock is being adjusted using the event action function (clock
synchronization using remote control signals), only when the difference between the
current time and the nearest “on the hour” hour is less than or equal to the preset
value is the clock gradually adjusted to the hour (see section 1.6).
