pwmclock

Position a system clock

Syntax:

pwmclock [-S i|n] [-s server] [-x x_pos] [-y y_pos]

Options:

-S i|n
Specify initial window state (i - iconify, n - normal).
-s server
Specify server node or device name to display clock on.
-x x_pos
Initial x_pos position of window.
-y y_pos
Initial y_pos position of window.

Description:

This utility lets you display and set the system time. To set the time, double-click on the clock on the Taskbar.

The RTC option sets the clock chip by invoking the rtc utility. For more information see the QNX Utilities Reference.


Note: The pwmclock utility runs as setuid root. If you don't want users to be able to set the time, you can remove the pwmclock utility from /usr/photon/bin, or change the permission e.g.
chmod -s pwmclock.

Examples:

Run a clock using Photon server on node 4:

pwmclock -s4

Or

pwmclock -s//4/dev/photon

Run a clock at initial position (10,10) with an initial dimension of 200*300:

pwmclock -x10 -y10 -h200 -w300
