     SETCLOCK(ADM)            XENIX System V             SETCLOCK(ADM)



     Name
          setclock - Sets the system real-time (time of day) clock.

     Syntax
          setclock [ time ]

     Description
          The setclock file sets the battery-powered, real-time time
          of day clock to the given time.  If time is not given, the
          current contents of the battery-powered clock are displayed.
          The time must be a combination of digits with the form:

               MMddhhmmyy

          where MM is the month, dd is the day, hh is the hour, mm is
          the minute, and yy is the last two digits of the year. If yy
          is not given, it is taken from the current system time.  For
          example, the command:

               082615092

          sets the time of day clock to  15:03 on August 26, 1992.
