SetTime

SetTime is a Write only, Ole Date tag that is used to set the device and/or system time. If an analyser can be configured as a time server, the SetTime tag is used to update the time/date in that time server. The other devices in the system must be configured with the IP address of the designated time server.

The concentration of a given Component and its related characteristics are represented using a Parameter of a type derived from EngineeringValueType.

The Value DataType is Float and its ValueRank is -1 because it is a scalar.

All components of this Variable are read-only.
