gnuplot plot timeseries minute resolution in the x-axis

I have a time series at second level. I'm using 

set timefmt '%d/%m/%Y %H:%M:%S'
set xdata time

My x-axis have time with second precision (09:45:00)

is it possible to show time only at minute precision (09:45..09h50..etc) instead of(09:45:00..09:50:00 etc)

set timefmt sets the format which is used to read the data file. To set a different output format for the x-axis, use e.g. 

set format x "%H:%M"

Then you must also set the xtics accordingly. To have a major tic every five minutes, use

set xtics 5*60
