Re: [foxboro] Current Date & Time

Trevor,
        The STATION block of the CP has connectable parameters for 
sec,min,hour,day,month,year,etc, that might work for you.

Subject: [foxboro] Current Date & Time

Does anyone know of a way to set a block parameter (i.e. SN0001 of a DEP
block) to the current system date and time?  I can do it with an external shell 
script executed from a display command; however, I want the date/time to be 
updated based on another block parameter, not an operator action.  On a related 
note, does anyone know of a way to execute a shell script from an I/A block?
