- ALARMCLOCK ACCESSORY
-
-
- The Micro-Time AlarmClock accessory consists of the following
- files:
-
- ALARMCLK.ACC
- COLORCLK.RSC
- MONO_CLK.RSC
- ALARMCLK.DAT
-
- In order for the AlarmClock accessory to work properly with your
- monitor, you must have either the COLORCLK.RSC (for color monitors)
- or the MONO_CLK.RSC (for monochrome monitors) on the same disk as
- the ALARMCLK.ACC file.
-
- When these files are put on your boot disk, the AlarmClock
- accessory will be properly installed and can be selected from the
- Desk dropdown menu.
-
- When selected, the AlarmClock accessory will open up a window on
- your screen. It is divided into three parts:
-
- Corner Clock
- Alarms
- Today's Time & Date
-
- Corner Clock
- This will allow you to turn ON/OFF the digital clock, which will
- be displayed in the upper right hand corner of the screen. You
- also have the choice between 12 and 24 hour display format of the
- clock.
-
- Alarms
- This section will allow you to set up to 5 alarms, which can be
- used as reminders when you are using the computer. To set an
- alarm, click on an alarm number, click alarm status to ON, and set
- the Alarm Time & Date. Then enter in an alarm message that you
- want to be displayed when the alarm goes off. When an alarm goes
- off, a bell will sound and the alert box will open and show you
- your message. Pressing return will make the alert box disappear.
-
- If you are not in a GEM program, you will only hear the alarm
- bell. Returning to the desktop will bring up the alert box with
- its message.
-
- NOTE: Time, Date and _M will allow you to use the "?" character as
- a wild card. Here is an example:
-
- Alarm Time: ??:00:00 ?M
- Alarm Date: ??-??-??
-
- In this example, an alarm would go off every hour, both
- AM & PM, of every day, month, and year.
-
- Today's Time & Date
- This section allows you to set the current Time and Date. After
- you are finished, click on DONE with the mouse or just press
- RETURN. The computer's Time & Date will now be set and your
- Corner Clock will be displayed, if selected ON, as well as any of
- your alarms. If you click on SAVE, a file will be saved to drive A
- or C, which will contain the current settings of the Corner Clock
- and the Alarms. This file, ALARMCLK.DAT will be loaded into your
- computer on boot up.
