Management – Date & Time:
Copying the date/time from the time server
The date and time are shown in the idle display of the base and registered hand-
sets. They are important, for example, for stating the correct time in the answering
machine list, call lists and for the "anniversary", "appointments" and "alarm clock"
functions.
There are various ways to update the date and time:
u
Manually on the base or on one of the registered handsets
u
Automatically through synchronisation with a time server on the Internet
Activate/deactivate synchronisation with a time server as follows:
¤
Open the
Settings
¢
Management
¢
Date & Time
Web page.
¤
In the
Automatic adjustment of System Time with Time Server
field, select
Yes
to activate synchronisation between the base and a time server. If you select
No
the base will not adopt time settings from a time server. In this case, set the time
and date manually using a handset.
¤
The
Last synchronisation with time server
field indicates the last time the base
compared the time and date settings with a time server. The field is only shown
if synchronisation is enabled.
¤
In the
Time Server
field, enter the Internet address or DNS name of the time
server from which the base should adopt its time and date settings (maximum
74 characters). The time server "europe.pool.ntp.org" is set as default. You can
overwrite the setting.
¤
From the
Country
list, select the country in which you are using your phone.
¤
The
Time Zone
field shows a list of all valid time zones for the country. The devi-
ation between local time (not summer time) and Greenwich Mean Time (GMT)
is shown. Select the valid time zone dependent on the area in which you want
to use your phone.
If a country is not divided into various time zones, the valid time zone is dis-
played in the
Time Zone
field.
¤
The
Automatically adjust clock to summer-time changes
field is displayed if
your time zone differentiates between British summer time and standard time.
Select
Yes
if you want the time to change automatically to summer time or
standard time when British summer time begins and ends respectively.
Select
No
if you do not want to change to summer time.
Please note:
If the date and time are updated by a time server that automatically
switches between summer time and standard time, you must always select
No
here.
¤
Select the
Set
button to save the settings in your phone.
Once you have activated synchronisation, the time and date are compared with a
time server as soon as an Internet connection is established.
