How to set the system time out of the PLC program?

How to set the system time out of the PLC program?

How can we set the system time of the ctrlX CORE out of a PLC program?

I've tried the SysTimeRtcSet function block (SysTimeRtc library) but this returns "ERR_NO_ACCESS_RIGHTS".

Thank you in advance.

Actually the only way of setting the system time is via the REST API:

 

PUT	https://<IP of control>/system/api/v1/time/settings
{"ntpServers":[],"timestamp":"2022-02-14T12:22:26","timeSynchronization":false}

 

Is there a plan to have a possobility to set the time via a PLC Programm with an PLC Function Block?

Hello Maurus,

currently there's no plan. But you can create a customer issue as requirement.

Is it possible to issue the put command from the PLC application?

If you have a PLC library that can use SSL encryption you can. You need to get a Token then from the authentication server and use this to send the request. Just like you do it with the REST API outside of the PLC.
