Set the date and time when you first install the VC 220 camera or if you restore the
camera’s default settings. We recommend that you change the time zone and
daylight saving period first, and then set the date and time. Set the date and time
by either syncing to a local PC, setting the date and time manually, or connecting to
an NTP server.
