Paul Hocker Posted February 21, 2022 Share Posted February 21, 2022 Is the Date/Time for the computer supposed to be automatically updated by Fujinet? I see videos of people loading the Weather app with the current date already set, however, my computer always boots with 6-06-94? I do not see any mention of it on docs or in the forum here. Thanks for the help. Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_The Doctor__ Posted February 21, 2022 Share Posted February 21, 2022 (edited) make sure it's online and you have an ntp server set, go to the web manager setup and make sure you have the time zone correct for where you live maybe? APETIME and or compatible driver to keep the time for your DOS and programs use? https://github.com/FujiNetWIFI/fujinet-platformio/wiki/Accessing-the-Real-Time-Clock https://unfinishedbitness.info/tag/apetime/ https://github.com/FujiNetWIFI/atariwifi/blob/master/platformio/FujiNet/lib/sio/apetime.cpp older information.... and some BBS help Edited February 21, 2022 by _The Doctor__ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tschak909 Posted February 21, 2022 Share Posted February 21, 2022 And date and time must be fetched via apetime. -Thom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Hocker Posted February 21, 2022 Author Share Posted February 21, 2022 I figured it out. The weather app was not prompting me for the initial location and just dropped right in. I hit SELECT and then I picked my city, state. @_The Doctor__ I do not see a setting for NTP server on http://fujinet? Should it find that automatically? @tschak909 Thanks I will look for that.

You can set the timezone in the webui, not the ntp server. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Hocker Posted February 21, 2022 Author Share Posted February 21, 2022 @mozzwald Thanks for the tip. I did find that setting. I guess I incorrectly assumed that it would connect to an time server and set it up automagically. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I does automagically connect to a time server when connected to wifi and sets the real time clock to UTC. If you set the time zone, it will change to your local time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Hocker Posted February 21, 2022 Author Share Posted February 21, 2022 The date/time on the FN is correct, but it is not set on my 130xe - I think that is because as mentioned above I need to run apenet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tschak909 Posted February 21, 2022 Share Posted February 21, 2022 you need to use apetime to sync SpartaDOS's clock. -Thom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Darken99 Posted May 4 Share Posted May 4 Thanks all for this great thread. It helped me set up my Sparta DOS 3.2g disks to set time from their FujiNets! What a wonderful device and great community. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_The Doctor__ Posted May 5 Share Posted May 5 APETIME usually works, but your work is a solution as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
