All production today has the Jul 5th edition WinCE with the Clock Fix Utility run on the unit.
There were some units sent to Georgia that didn't have a valid time and date in the RTC as they were manufactured with the June 7th edition of WinCE and that edition couldn't set a time and date properly. These units are being upgraded to Jul 5th edition and the RTC corrected at the Atlanta Georgia warehouse as they are found. As all production at that time this occurred (mid to late June) had been directed to Georgia, I believe that Georgia is the only place that should experience this.
Having said that, it may be that some units were redirected from Georgia shipments to accommodate priorities in other accounts. If the units in any of your accounts have Jul 5th edition WinCE and the unit displays "No battery" in the lower right corner then your first assumption would be to run the Clock Fix Utility. I wouldn't even bother to check the battery connections until this utility was run first.

> > This program (nk.bin) is loaded from the PCMCIA card by the boot loader and then initializes the PIC's RTC. The program does not get copied to the internal Flash therefore there is no need to re-load the WinCE image after running the clock fix program. If a valid date already exists then the date will not be modified.

> > The ClockFix program is on the ftp site under the BS4Fix directory. It is called ClockFix.zip and password is "and83jd92ndjs". Unzip the file and copy it to a PCMCIA card, then insert the card into the bottom PCMCIA slot and turn the AVTS unit on. It will display a message that it is fixing the clock and then when it is done it will tell the user to turn to unit off.
