Some equipment has no concept of date and has no facility to input a current date.
Actual testing is therefore meaningless. It has no understanding of the change of century and we therefore believe that it does not represent any threat in this context. Other equipment does incorporate a clock however it is not used in any way associated with the essential functionality of the equipment. In some units the date and time may be displayed to the user however this information is not used in any other part of the equipment. This equipment has been tested with dates through the relevant end of millennium dates and no aspect of performance has been seen to be impaired.
