NMEA is normally the default source setup for date and time:
This source setting is correct for the XDi-N where the NMEA time data is connected and selected in the initial
NMEA setup procedure.
Note: You can always go into NMEA input setup and see the actual NMEA data and time setup.
8.3.5.2 Local time offset shared via NMEA
If other XDi-
N units needs the local offset via CAN bus, then “Send on CAN” and “Send interval” must be setup.
Now local time offset is shared via CAN 1 every 30 sec. It is also possible only to make it on a change instead, but
making transmissions periodical secures that all XDi units are synchronized regularly, even when they were
powered down at the latest change of the local offset.
