Digital Control Section
Date/Time (Parameter No. U02)
This is the date and time maintained by the PM5000’s
internal clock. The date and time parameters are used to
time-stamp scene memory and other data saved to
external CompactFlash memory cards.
1
Press [ENTER] after selecting the above display and
the year, month, and day values will appear on the
parameter display while “DT” (date) flashes. At this
point you could use the [INC] and [DEC] keys to
select “TM” (time) for editing rather than the date,
but the date parameters will appear first since they
are usually edited first.
2
Press the [ENTER] key and the year value will flash.
The flashing value can be edited by using the [INC]
and [DEC] keys. When a value has been edited as
required press [ENTER] to confirm the entry and
move on to the next value.
3
Once the day (rightmost) value has been edited and
the [ENTER] key pressed, the date is confirmed and
“DT” will flash again. Press the [INC] or [DEC] key
and the display will change to the time parameters:
hour, minutes, and seconds. The leftmost “hours”
value will be flashing and ready for editing. In the
same way as in the date display, edit each value as
necessary and press [ENTER] to move on to the next
value. When the final “seconds” value has been
edited and the [ENTER] pressed the time entry is
confirmed and complete.
CompactFlash Memory (Parameter No. U03)
This function allows internal scene and setup memory
data to be saved to and loaded from external
CompactFlash memory cards. A memory card
formatting function is also provided.
1
Press [ENTER] after selecting the above display and
one of the displays shown below will appear. Select
LOD (load), SAV (save), DEL (delete), or FMT
(format), as necessary, and press the [ENTER] key.
NOTE
If the backup battery runs out the date and time will be reset to
2001/1/1, 0:00:00, and will begin keeping time from that value.
D A T E / T I M E
D T 2 0 0 3 / 0 6 / 1 0
D T 2 0 0 3 / 0 6 / 1 0
T M 1 5 : 4 5 : 3 2
NOTE
New CompactFlash memory cards must be formatted before use.
CompactFlash memory cards are formatted in accordance with
DOS (FAT16) format, and files are handled in CSV format. Data
saved to memory cards can then be loaded into a personal
computer via a card reader or similar device, and the data can
then be edited in a standard spreadsheet application (file names
comply with the DOS standard: 8 characters plus the “.CSV”
extension).
NOTE
When the load or delete functions are selected the name of the
CSV file on the card will appear on the display (the “.CSV”
extension will not be shown).
NOTE
If a memory card is not inserted, the parameter display will not
change even when you press [ENTER].
