CPU Unit Time Functions
Unreliable values will be output if the CPU Unit’s internal clock is not stable, such as when the CPU Unit
is operated without a backup battery.
When the execution condition goes ON, this function outputs the present time (hour, minutes, and seconds)
in ASCII.
For example, the output would be #3133313534300000 at 13:15:40.
1) When bit A goes ON, the present time is output in ASCII to 4 words starting at D0.
2) A file is created with the present time as the file name.
