status. For this purpose

it sets the CPU clock to
the current time and
according to the
changeover rules in the
Control DB.

FB 61 SET_SW_S TIMEFUNC supports the

summertime/wintertime
changeover in CPUs that
do have the time status.
For this purpose it sets
the time status to the
current time and
according to the
changeover rules in the
Control DB.

FB 62 TIMESTMP TIMEFUNC transfers the time-

stamped messages of an
IM153-2 into its instance
DB.

FC 60 LOC_TIME TIMEFUNC reads the time status or

time of the CPU and
calculates the local time.
It is therefore only useful
on CPUs with time
status.

FC 61 BT_LT TIMEFUNC calculates the local time

from the base time given
at the input.

FC 62 LT_BT TIMEFUNC calculates the base time

from the local time given
at the input.

FC 63 S_LTINT TIMEFUNC sets the required time

interrupt to the preset
time. This time is given in
local time.
