Thank you! I'm glad you like it and find it useful! I have made a few
updates to it since I posted here, but
nothing critical. I did add a short version of each parameter, so /SETTIM
can be specified as /ST, etc.

I didn't know about the year either at first. But then I read somewhere the
TCU-100 and up have the year
and the -50 doesn't. Having it hardcoded works for now though. It only has
to change once a year.

I haven't found any replacement NiCD cells so I ended up replacing them
with a CR2032 battery and a
diode on mine, so it will keep the time when the power is off. If you know
a source for the NiCD cells,
please let me know.
