3.12. VIEWING AND SETTING THE DATE AND TIME
The KLX 135A system time and date should seldom, if ever, require
updating because they are automatically updated when at least one
satellite is received. In addition, the KLX 135A contains an internal
battery powered calendar/clock to keep system time and date when
the unit is not being used. You will normally check to make sure the
KLX 135A is set to the correct time and date shortly after you turn
the unit on while you verify the Self Test Page. You can, however,
also check the time and date on the Setup (SET) 2 page anytime you
desire. There are several pages as well as some internal functions of
the KLX 135A, such as magnetic variation and proper use of data
base information, that depend on having the proper time and date.
NOTE: You will not be able to update the time or date if the KLX
135A is receiving a time and date from a satellite.
To set the date on the SET 2 page:
1. Select the SET 2 page
(figure 3-158).
2. Turn on the cursor. The cursor
will be over the entire date field
(figure 3-159).
3. Select the correct day of the
month with the right inner knob.
4. Move the flashing part of the
cursor to the month field (middle
three dashes) with the right outer
knob, and select the proper
month (figure 3-160).
5. Move the flashing part of the
cursor to the tens digit of the year
field, and select the proper num-
ber (figure 3-161).
6. Repeat step 5 for the ones digit
of the year field.
