Command Line Mode

ClockWatch can be started from the command line using the Windows95 Run command or from the MS-DOS prompt. When called from the command line, without argument, ClockWatch will start and wait for user input.

If you launch ClockWatch from the command line and want the program to run once and exit without user intervention, use the once command argument

ClockWatch Pro

<program_path> ClockWatch.exe  once

Runs ClockWatch in the unattended mode, where <program_path> is the path where the executable is located, ClockWatch.exe is the executable and once is the command line option. This is equivalent to starting the program in the Manual mode, pressing the "Set Time" button and exiting.

Note that in this mode ClockWatch uses the system default timeserver to make the connection.

To start ClockWatch in the normal, attended mode, omit the once argument.

ClockWatch Server

Users of ClockWatch Server should use the following command:

<program_path> CWSrvc.exe  once

Using the CWSrvc executable has the added advantage of using the specific ClockWatch settings instead of the system defaults.
