Time
The VX150 to VX2’s internal clock uses a super capacitor and therefore maintains an accurate date and
time, even during power outages. The date and time needs to be set when the transmitter is first
installed or might need to be reset after a power outage lasting longer than 24 hours.
If the NTP feature is enabled (see Figure 2.2.39 ), the clock will set automatically and cannot be
manually adjusted.
You can also set the time and date using the Front Panel UI (see NTP Sync on page 2.2.121 and Set Date
on page 2.2.122 ). If you change the clock setting on the front panel UI, it will also be reflected on the
remote AUI, and vice versa.
Setting the Clock - Using the AUI
You can remotely set the VX150 to VX2’s time and date by selecting Time from the Settings menu. See
Figure 2.2.39 ).
