I am trying to talk someone through setting the date and time on Octel 100. OS/2 based platform. I have never seen one of these machines in person. Since the application is running on a PC it must get the time/date from the PC clock.
Are there any tricks to getting to the right area of OS/2 to do this? The person I am talking to says he can't see any place to get to the OS/2. Since I am doing this blind I don't know what to tell him. The Octel100 manuals don't describe setting the date and time for the OS. I haven't been in front of an OS/2 machine since mid '90s.
Any ideas are welcome. thanks

Octel 100, (OS/2 based) PCs:



From the Desktop, click the OS/2 System shortcut. This opens the OS/2 System – Icon View Window. Click on System Set-up shortcut. This will open System Setup – Icon View. Click on the System Clock shortcut. This will open the system clock. In the clock window, you will see a small clock in the upper left corner, clicking on this will open a scroll down window. Click on Settings. This opens the clock settings window. Use the up/down buttons to modify the clock hour as needed.
