KB-28138: Script for changing date/time is not working.

Question:

Why is Elipse SCADA’s date/time not updated when I use SetSystemTime function?

Solution:

This happens because, by default, Elipse SCADA uses its internal clock, and by running SetSystemTime command, it will start running a little faster or slower until it keep up with the system’s new date/time.

To make sure Elipse SCADA uses the system’s clock instead of the internal clock, follow these procedures:

1. At Start menu, select Run option and type regedit command.
2. Open the folder HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Elipse Software\Elipse32\Options.
3. Create a Dword-type switch called DisableInternalClock and set its value as 1.
