Dave,

The problems you encounter with setting time are more than likely caused by
a faulty transformer (T1) on the AC Distribution Panel.  This transformer
provides 12vac to the Maintenance Panel, which in turn, converts it to a
5volt supply for powering the MP's logic circuitry.  The IOP also works in
conjunction with the Maintenance Panel to provide the Time-Of-Day Clock.
In nine times out of ten, the transformer breaks down over a period of
time, thus reducing the 12vac output enough to cause this failure mode.
Replacing T1 with a new Dale IPL-2329-25 transformer should solve your
problem.

Good Luck,
	Tom
