SetClock (1.3, 2.x, 3.x in C:)
NAME
SETCLOCK - Used to copy the time and date from the
hardware clock to the AmigaDOS software clock.
SYNOPSIS
SETCLOCK [LOAD or SAVE or RESET]
DESCRIPTION
SetClock only works with Commodore's own
clock/calendar, or compatible units.
KEYWORDS
Load or Save or Reset
One of these must be used!
Load: The stored time and date is copied from the
hardware clock to the system clock. This is
automatically done in 1.3 in the startup sequence. Under
2.x/3.x it is done from the kickstart ROM.
Save: The current AmigaDOS system time and date is
copied to the hardware clock.
Reset: This will restart the clock if it was turned
off by some program which wrote to the clock's hardware
registers. You will know if this happens if you get a
report that says: "battery backed clock not found" or the
system clock is shown unset.
