SHIP:System Variable:shiptime

System Variable	Data Type	Permissions	Description
shiptime	Time	Read/Write	This variable tracks the current system time. You can change these values, but they are only retained across power cycles if the platform has battery-backed RTCC capabilities.

It is very easy to create a clock in our GUI by listening to shiptime. The simple script

text.value = toString(shiptime.hour,2) + ":" + toString(shiptime.minute,2) ;

within a listener with the listeningto property set to "shiptime.minute" will automatically keep the text value updated every second.
