Syntax

CRTIME

Use

This resident point maintains the current time and stores the value in a decimal format. The following examples show how CRTIME stores values:

7:15 a.m. = 7.25

7:30 p.m. = 19.50

The values for this point can range from 0.00 to 23.999721.

Example

500  C

501  C THIS CODE DEFINES A TIME PERIOD

502  C FROM 6:45 A.M. TO 5:30 P.M. FOR

503  C SFAN TO OPERATE.

504  C

510  IF (CRTIME.GE.6.75.AND.CRTIME.LE.17.50) THEN ON(SFAN)ELSE OFF(SFAN)

CRTIME can also be used to assign the current value of time to a virtual LAO type point which allows you to read the current time on a graphic, point log, etc. For example:

100  VTIME = CRTIME

Notes

CRTIME is updated every second.

It is not recommended to check for exact time as the time of execution could create inconsistent results.
