The section of the 

Settings

 page shown in 

Figure 20

 is displayed when you click the 

Time Settings 

link. Use this section to specify 

Network Time Protocol (NTP) servers and the time zone. This information is used to provide accurate stream time stamping. 

NOTE: 

The NVR can accept a time change command. However, if you want the device to ignore them, check the Only NTP can set time 

(Enable) box. This is recommended if using NTP.
