DAytime date & time Default: none
Mode: All Host: DA
_________________________________ Parameters: __________________________________
date & time - Current DATE and TIME to set.
________________________________________________________________________________
DAYTIME sets the PK-900's internal clock current date and time. The date &
time is used in many modes and should be set when the PK-900 is powered up.
The clock is not set when the PK-900 is turned on. The DAYTIME command
displays the "?clock not set" error message until it is set as follows:
yymmddhhmm[ss] (spaces and punctuation are allowed)
Example: cmd:daytime 9108090659
where:
yy is the last two digits of the year
mm is the two-digit month code (01-12)
dd is date (01-31)
hh is the hour (00-23)
mm is the minutes after the hour (00-59)
[ss] is the optional seconds
o Optionally the Dallas Semiconductor DS-1216C SmartWatch may be added to
the PK-900. To install this IC carefully remove the 32K RAM IC (U39) and
install the SmartWatch in the RAM socket. Then re-install the RAM IC in
the socket provided by the SmartWatch.
Be sure and remove the PK-900 Battery Jumper JP3 when the SmartWatch is
installed. The DS-1216C will automatically back up the installed RAM IC
with its own battery. Leaving the PK-900 battery jumper JP3 connected
may deplete the on-board lithium battery.

DCdconn ON|OFF Default: OFF
Mode: Packet/PACTOR/AMTOR KISS and RAWHDLC Host: DC
_________________________________ Parameters: __________________________________
ON - RS-232 cable Pin 8 follows the state of the CON (or DCD) LCD.
OFF - RS-232 cable Pin 8 is permanently set high (default).
________________________________________________________________________________
DCDCONN defines how the DCD (Data Carrier Detect) signal affects pin 8 in the
RS-232 interface to your computer or terminal. Some programs such as PBBS
software require that DCDCONN be ON.
DCDCONN also works in the RAWHDLC and KISS Modes. In RAWHDLC and KISS Modes, no
packet connections are known to the PK-900. When DCDCONN is ON, the state of
the radio DCD is sent to the RS-232 DCD pin (pin-8). This may be necessary to
some host applications that need to know when the radio channel is busy.
