Data format
The date string format is "DDD,dd mmm yyyy.hh:mm:ss". The punctuation is normally irrelevant, the position of the component values is fixed. BCD date block format: +0 year &00-&99 +1 month &01-&12 +2 date &01-&31 +3 day &01-&07 Sun-Sat or &00 for unsupported +4 hour &00-&59 +5 minute &00-&59 +6 second &00-&59 +7 century &19-&20, if omitted, year is 1980-2079 BCD alarm block format: +0 hour &00-&59 or &C0-&FF for 'any' +1 minute &00-&59 or &C0-&FF for 'any' +2 second &00-&59 or &C0-&FF for 'any'
Implementation
On a system without a Real Time Clock, the MOS passes OSWORD 14 to sideways ROMs for support.
Master MOS
The Master MOS 3 and MOS 4 implements subcalls 0,1,2. Unpatched versions always consistantly return the year in the date string as 19xx. This can be repaired with:
Read time string to T$ IF MID$(T$,14,1)<"8":T$=LEFT$(T$,11)+"20"+MID$(T$,14)
ANFS
Master ANFS 4.2x implements subcalls 0,1,3,4 and calls OSWORD 14,2 to convert the result of subcall 0 and 3 to a string. BBC ANFS 4.0x and 4.1x only implements OSWORD 14,4.
The ANFS implementation fails in a predictable manner with dates after 1996. The returned date is ((year-1981) DIV 16)*16+date and the returned year is (year-1981) AND 15. The date can be repaired across the whole date range with:
date =BCDtoBIN(returned_date) AND 31 month=BCDtoBIN(returned_month) year =(BCDtoBIN(returned_date) AND &E0) DIV 2 + BCDtoBIN(returned-year)+1900
SoftRTC
The SoftRTC module stores the time and date with the system TIME timer. It implements subcalls 0,1,2 and 8,9,10. The SoftRTC module included in HADFS only implements subcalls 0,1,2 with the date set with *SETDATE.
