6.1.3
Using Services
In addition to the core functions described earlier in this document, the Communications category also
allows various services to be configured. These services appear in the Navigation Pane under the Services
icon, and each is described below.
6.1.3.1
Using Time Management
MonicoView II contains facilities to allow you to synchronize the time and date within the target device
with a variety of sources. The Time Manager can also maintain information about the device’s time-zone,
and whether daylight saving time is currently enabled. In fact, having accurate time-zone information
available is vital to proper synchronization, as the various synchronization methods are all designed to
work with Universal Coordinated Time, also known as UTC or Greenwich Mean Time.
6.1.3.1.1
Configuring the Service
The Time Manager is configured via the associated icon in the Navigation Pane:

The
Enable Time Manager
property is used to control access to the other facilities. If it is not checked
(default), MonicoView II will operate in the local time zone only and will have no knowledge of time-zones
or other time management information.
Time Server
Appropriately configuring the Enable SNTP property of the Time Server section will instruct MonicoView II
to act as an SNTP server. This will allow other MonicoView II devices to synchronize their own clocks to the
clock of this unit. Note that MonicoView II’s implementation of SNTP is not fully RFC compliant, and is not
supported as a source of synchronization for third-party clients.
