TFT LCD Panel - Real Time Clock (RTC)
The GUI contains a screen for viewing/modifying the current date and time. This information is sourced from the NB2DSK01 motherboard's DS1391U-33 device – an SPI-compatible real-time clock (RTC).
To access clock controls (Figure 1), from the Home screen of the GUI touch the icon, followed by the icon.
Time is always displayed using the 24-hour format (e.g. 14:22
). The date is always displayed in the format yyyy - mm - dd
(e.g. 2007 - 12 - 04
).
Simply touch the relevant field to expose controls for incrementing/decrementing the value of that field. Commit any changes by touching the icon.
Once the DS1391U-33 device is setup with the correct time and date, it will always reflect the correct time and date, even after a reset to default values, providing power to the device is not lost (i.e. NB2DSK01 motherboard powered off and the 3V Lithium battery is depleted).
