SCREEN ACTION

When the Update is complete the 6270

goes to the "Home" screen or "More

Choices" screen depending on whether

you pressed the "Home" or "Back" button,

respectively ("More Choices" screen

shown).

How to Set the Time and Date

You can set the time and date from the Set Time & Date screen.

Pressing the Time and Date bar located at the bottom of each 6270

screen displays the Set Time & Date screen.

When the time is set it will be stored in the 6270 only. The 6270 will

send the time to the control panel every hour. This 1-hour timer

starts on 6270 power-up.

If Adjust for DST (Daylight Savings Time) is selected, the 6270 will

adjust for Daylight Savings time. When selected, the next time the 1-

hour timer expires, the new value will be sent to the control panel.

IMPORTANT: This means that the 6270 setting will override and

overwrite the control panel time setting. That is, if the control panel

is set to DST and adjusts but the 6270 is not, upon the 1-hour timer

expiration, the control panel will be updated to the current time that

is not adjusted for DST.

From the Set Time & Date screen, adjust either or both the time

and date by pressing the increase or decrease arrow buttons as

necessary until the proper month, day, year, hour, and minute are

displayed.
