Last updated: April 16, 2009

GPIB Command Conventions

CALL[:CELL]:CSTime:DATE

Function

Sets/queries the date portion of the CDMA system time. The CDMA system time starts at what you set (or internal RTC time when shipped from the factory) and keeps going as a UTC time (Universal Coordinated Time) without leap seconds.

It is set/returned in three comma-separated values, in the order of <year>, <month> and <date>.

The CDMA system time consists of the date and time portions while the time portion is specified by CALL[:CELL]:CSTime:TIME .

See CDMA System Time for details.

Setting

Range: from January 6, 1980 to January 5, 2080 where

  • <year> 1980 to 2080,
  • <month> 1 to 12 (the number 1 corresponds to January)
  • <day> 1 to the number of days in the month specified by the <month> parameter

Query

Range: from January 6, 1980 to January 5, 2096 where

  • <year> 1980 to 2096
  • <month> 1 to 12 (the number 1 corresponds to January)
  • <day> 1 to the number of days in the month specified by the <month> parameter

or -1,-1,-1 is returned when the test set is not in Active Cell or IS-856 Test Mode operating mode.

Requirement

Test Application Revision: A.05 and above
Lab Application Revision: A.02 and above
