Correcting the Clock
Whole Hours: Time Reference
Check the Time Reference setting. If the clock of a unit in another time zone shows a time
that is off by whole hours, the clock could be set to the correct time, but is using an optional
display (GMT, operator’s time zone, unit’s time zone). Refer to the Selecting a Time
Reference in
Rapid Eye™ Multi-Media Digital Video Recorder Remote View Operator Guide .
Whole Hours: Time Zone
Check the Time Zone setting. If the clock of a unit in another time zone shows a time that
is off by whole hours, the clock could be set to the correct time, but is set to an incorrect
time zone. See
Unit Time Zone and Clock on page 64 .
Setting the Clock to the Correct Time
A short span of incorrect time. If a unit’s clock shows the wrong time (more than +/- a few
seconds) for a short time period (a few seconds, a few minutes, up to an hour), you need
to reset the clock correctly; either automatically or manually.
A Follow-Up May Be Needed: Clearing Storage
If the clock remains set to an incorrect time (more than +/- a few seconds) for a
considerable length of time (many hours, days or weeks) it can become inconvenient and
confusing for an operator who needs to play through that recorded video. For such an error:
• Set the clock correctly; either automatically or manually.
• Consider Clearing Storage , page 141 .
