- SETCLOCK SAVE sets the date and time of the battery backed-up hardware clock
- (if your system has one) from the current system time, which is set with the
- Time editor or with the DATE command. SETCLOCK SAVE is typically used after a
- DATE command.
-
- SETCLOCK LOAD sets the current system time form the battery backed-up clock.
- In systems using AmigaDOS Release 2 or later, this is done automatically
- during the boot process.
-
- The RESET option resets the clock completely. Use this option if the clock is
- accidentally turned off or LOAD and SAVE do not appear to work correctly.
-
- Example:
-
- 1> DATE 22-Jan-93 07:15:25
- 1> SETCLOCK SAVE
-
- saves the date, January 22, 1993, and the time, 7:15 a.m., to the battery
- backed-up hardware clock. When the system is booted, the system clock is set
- with the time saved in the hardware clock.
-
- Some Amiga models do not have battery backed-up clocks unless an expansion
- unit has been installed.
