Example
The code below demonstrates how you can set a new system date and/or time.
JavaScript, JScript
function SettingNewSystemDateTime()
{
var dt1 = aqDateTime.SetDateTimeElements(2010, 6, 22, 10, 15, 12);
var dt2 = aqDateTime.SetDateElements(2010, 6, 22);
var time1 = aqDateTime.SetTimeElements(10, 15, 12);
// Set a new system date
aqDateTime.SetSystemDateTime(dt2);
// Set new system time
aqDateTime.SetSystemDateTime(time1);
// -- or --
// Set a new system date and time using one function
aqDateTime.SetSystemDateTime(dt1);
// Post the current date and time to the test log
var dt = aqDateTime.Now();
Log.Message(dt);
}
Python
