If you are programming a DTAM Plus with a clock/calendar option, you can
insert the time or date into any application screen. Time and date functions
are not available on the DTAM Micro.

The time field takes up 5 character positions and is displayed in the
format HH:MM. AM/PM and seconds are not displayed to conserve space.
However AM/PM and the seconds are shown on print forms in the format
HH:MM:SS AM.

The date field takes up 9 character positions and is displayed in the format
MMM/DD/YY.

To insert the time or date:

1. Use the arrow keys to position the cursor where you want to insert the

date or time.

The current date or time is inserted on the display:
