Hello seesy1234,

The date and time is not buffered at Basic Panels (KTP600) if you switch off the KTP600.
You must synchronize the time and date of your KTP 600 with your S7-1200 PLC.  
You can see the solution for in the following FAQ:

How do you synchronize the time of the HMI Basic Panel with an S7-1200 PLC?

How do you synchronize the system clock between a Windows-based panel and an S7-200 CPU with WinCC flexible?
