Canvas does not include a dedicated object for displaying the date and time on the device. However, a date and time string can be displayed using a system tag in conjunction with a Text object. To create the system tag, click the ‘New Tag’ icon in the ‘Tag Editor'. Next, in the ‘Edit Tag' window, click the pencil icon to open the ‘I/O Address Editor’ window. Under the ‘Type’ drop-down menu, select ‘System,’ then select ‘Datetime String’ under the ‘Value’ drop-down menu and click ‘OK’.

Once you have finished creating the tag, draw a text box on a page. Click on the newly created text box, then open the ‘Property Editor’ and find the ‘Text’ property and click the binding Icon. Select the previously created tag and press ‘OK’. The text box object will now display a string that contains both the date and time data from the Xpanel.
