Description

  • This program adjusts the Real Time Clock (RTC) in a controller based on the occurence of Daylight Saving Time. The RTC is adjusted forward by one hour in the spring and back by one hour in the fall. This program is designed to work through until the end of 2010.
  • Note: In order for the RTC adjustment to occur at the correct time, ensure that the RTC is set to the correct time and date once this program is downloaded to the controller.
  • Coil 00050 is used to reset the counter in network 11. This ensures that the value in the counter's holding register is initialized to zero on start up.
