I am having trouble with the GSV for WALLCLOCKTIME. I have set up a user defined data type called DateTime_Type and it has the following structure.

Year DINT
Month DINT
Day DINT
Hour DINT
Minute DINT
Second DINT

I also have a tag called DateTime That uses the DateTime_Type

My GSV is set up like this

GSV
Get System Value
Class Name WALLCLOCKTIME
Instance Name
Attribute Name DateTime
Dest DateTime.Year

Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong.

Thanks

That all looks ok, but your DateTime.year is a single DINT tag rather than an array. The wallclock time needs an array of 7
i.e. GSV WALLCLOCKTIME ? DateTime time[0]
where time is an array[0..6] of DINT

Your DateTime_Type is only 6 words
Wallclock returns array of 7.
Add one more DINT for fraction of the second and it sould work.

Also you may try to change Dest to DateTime without .Year

Thanks guys.

I added another DINT and it works fine.

You guys are the greatest
