Each of the seven fields is described below:

(month, day, and year). Then use the Spacebar or Shift-Spacebar to cycle
through the settings. The date can also be set by the host.
Time – Use the procedure described for Date above to set the hour, minutes,
or seconds.
The clock is reset to 08:00 AM at power-up. Due to hardware
limitations, the clock may drift by 15 seconds per day. We
recommend setting the terminal’s time as part of the system
login process.
Display – Indicate whether only Time, only Date, or both the Time and the
Date are displayed on the top status line. Display of Time/Date can also be
turned Off. The date display can also be set by the host.
Type – Select whether the clock functions on a 12-hour or 24-hour basis.
