You can use Time & Date widgets to enable you to both display time and date, and to enable these values to be entered from the HMI Panel.
Time and Date values: System RTC Settings vs RTC Struct (by User)
By default, Time and Date widgets are linked to the system Real Time Clock (RTC).
The RTC values in a UniStream controller are serviced by two system structs, RTC Time and RTC Date. The struct values are read from or written to and displayed by the Time and Date Widgets.
|
You can also create an RTC Time or RTC Date struct, and link it to your Widget. Note that the property Tag: RTC Struct (by User) is only enabled if, in the Widget Properties, the property System RTC Settings is unchecked. |

Time and Date Widgets include:
HE: Date, Calendar and Digital

Additional methods for setting the RTC are listed in the topic Setting the RTC
