Clocks can also be individually configured using a telnet session. Each clock
needs to be set up with the following minimum configuration.
An
IP address
so that the clock can communicate on the network. This
can be either static or DHCP served.
A
network time server
so that the clock knows with which computer it
should be synchronized.
The
local time zone
so that the clock can display the correct local time.
The
Daylight Saving Time (DST)
rule so that the clock can automatically
adapt to local DST.
Appendix A contains a complete list of telnet commands for reference. You can
also refer to the OnTime FAQ located at
Inova OnTime Support
for more
configuration assistance.
Connect the clock to a PoE enabled network and watch the digital display face or
the rear digital display on the analog clock for the DHCP served IP Address. If
an IP Address appears, use this address in the steps below. If the letters „dhcp‟
remain on the display, then either temporarily move the clock to a network
segment with DHCP service, or set up a „bench‟ network composed of just the
clock and a PC using a crossover cable. You may need to consult your IT
department and use the default link-local IP Address to make a connection.
Once you have the clock‟s IP Address, you can then establish the telnet
connection:
1.
Choose Run from the Windows Start Menu.
2.
When the Run window appears, type
cmd
and press Enter.
3.
When the command line window appears, type the telnet command
telnet
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx, where
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
is the known IP address of the
clock.
Note
: Windows Vista users may need to change the default windows
configuration in order to use telnet. Contact your IT Group for assistance.
4.
The clock‟s service light begins to blink and the clock login prompt
appears:
