Geoff,

He asked to put 24hrs in the system clock, regardless of what he is using it for.

system clock and hardware clock are not the same.
Changing "system clock to 24hr" could have other implications for asterisk/app_rpt/cron/sched (unknown).
Something to think about. Consider to read about that first.

http://www.hypexr.org/linux_date_time_help.php
is a start for a simple explanation for setting 24hr system.

I don't know how/if TIME-allison will pick-up and use the 24hr system clock data (if set). I guess he will find out.

ALT to have allison speak the time in 24hr, hourly, is to use sched and macro for each hour you want it played.

Edit /etc/localtime

You can set all the data on time from there.
You can google linux localtime for more info

But, that's not what he asked.


I have both of my systems transmitting my call and  the time every hour.
Its states it in 12 hour fomat. How can I get it to do it in24hour format ?
The clock on the Beagle is set for 24 hour format.


His problem is not setting the time, or getting it announced. 

What he wants is for Allison to spit out the time, on the our, in 24-hour format. 
(ie: 2pm becomes; "Good afternoon.  The time is fourteen hundred hours")
