5.7 Hardware System Clock
This equipment has a hardware system clock that uses an RTC (real-time clock) IC.
The clock has a built-in calendar and continues to work by using a backup battery, even when the system power is
off.
#: Rough estimates when the ambient temperature is 25°C.
The system regularly updates the internal clock by using a periodic timer. The internal clock is adjusted by reading
the time and date from the hardware clock when, for example, the system starts.
