# Manual Time Configuration

You can manually configure the time on the device with the `clock set` command.

Although the hardware calendar (built-in clock) is the default time-source, the hardware clock and software clock are separate and can be configured separately.

## Hardware Clock (Calendar) configuration

You can manually configure the hardware clock with the `calendar set` command.

Typically you will want to synchronize the 'clock' and 'calendar'. Use the command...

* ... `clock update-calendar` to sync the calendar to the clock's time.
* ... `clock read-calendar` to sync the clock to the calendar's time.
