OSBYTE &F3 (243) - Read/Write offset to current TIME value

   A value of X=5 means that TIME copy 1 is being updated
   A value of X=10 means that TIME copy 2 is being updated
   Two copies of TIME are required in case the TIME update interrupt occurs
   part way through a read of TIME - leading to inconsistant values.
