The clock chip itself does not store the century.
 
==== Setting the system time automatically on the PCW ====
To automatically set the PCW system time, add the following line to the PROFILE.SUB file of the boot disk:
 
uRTC -tp
 
Before first use, set the uRTC-8 clock time as shown in the usage section. Now, at each boot, the CP/M Plus system time is set automatically from the battery backed clock on the uRTC-8 board.
 
==== Setting the system time automatically on the Superbrain ====
The Superbrain has no automatic boot command capability; however, if you are using uRTC-8 you can use the XSETCMD.COM program to set an initial boot command. The one you want is:
 
uRTC -ts
 
Before first use, set the uRTC-8 clock time as shown in the usage section. Now, at each boot, the Superbrain system time is set automatically from the battery backed clock on the uRTC-8 board.
=== Additional CP/M software required ===
