4.4 Setting Device Time Zone
The BreezeMAX Si 4000 uses the Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) to set its
internal clock based on periodic updates from a time server. Maintaining an
accurate time on the device enables the system log to record meaningful dates and
times for event entries. This time value may also be passed to telephone handsets
connected to the unit's phone line connections, depending on the capabilities of
your phone.
The Device Time page displays the following information:

Current Local Time (hh:mm:ss) – Displays the current time of the system
clock.

Time Zone – SNTP uses Greenwich Mean Time, or GMT (also known as
Universal Time Coordinated, or UTC) based on the time at the Earth’s prime
meridian, zero degrees longitude. To display a time corresponding to your local
time, select your time zone from the pull-down list. The default is GMT-06.00,
for Central Time (USA and Canada.)
