Function

Queries the date portion of the CDMA Local time. It is the same date displayed in the mobile station. The value of setting is calculated with the following formula:

CDMA Local Time (Date) = Date (CDMA System Time (Date) + CDMA System Time (Time) - Leap Second + Local Time Offset)

After the mobile station finds the service and registers in the test set, if the Local Time Offset and the Leap Seconds are changed, the time displayed on the mobile station can not be updated immediately since these parameters are only sent in the Sync Channel Message .
