Set time and date HMI

Hello

I have a panel (4pp045-0571-k09) that has already been programmed, after a few years of using the panel I replaced the battery because it was broken and now I can’t set the date and time on the panel, can you help me with this?

Best regards.

Ali

Hi Ali,

Depending on what operating system the panel is running, you should be able to set the time from Automation Studio.

  1. Connect to the panel using the Online → Settings menu
  2. Open the Online → Info popup
  3. Go to the Date/Time tab
  4. Click “Set to Target”

This will match the panel’s clock to your computer’s.

Dear Marcus
I hope you are doing well.

As shown in the photo, the info option is disabled, can you please help me more?

Best regards.

Of course it is - your status bar shows “Offline” and thus you aren’t connected to the target. You need to establish the connection first (maybe a right-click on the item in the browse dialog and then “Connect” already does that, sometimes it can be a little bit tricky to get that to work, in my experience) and then the “Info” button should be enabled

Dear Michael,

Yes you are right. The connection is not established, no matter how many times I press the connect button, the connection is not established, what is the solution to this problem?

should I not change the position switches? Now they are on 05

Excuse me, Can you help me for connect to the panel?

I see that the PLC’s IP address is 172.16.1.80. What is your laptop’s IP address? They must be on the same subnet to connect. Also, is there an Ethernet cable running directly from the PLC to your laptop or are you going through a network of some kind?
