get the seconds
convert it to abbreviated system date
put it

The convert command needs to be given a value (or a container holding  
a value) you need to convert.  This also works:

convert value(quote & the seconds & quote)  to abbreviated system date

I've been caught out by convert before doing precisely what you are  
trying to do.  This 'feature' of Rev does not seem consistent or  
intuitve to me.
