Field Description
Time Protocol Enter the time service protocol that your time server uses. Not all
time servers support all protocols, so check with your ISP or network
administrator or use trial and error to find a protocol that works. The
main differences between the time protocols are the format.
Daytime (RFC 867) format is the day/month/year/time zone of the
server.
Time (RFC-868) format displays a 4-byte integer giving the total
number of seconds since 1970/1/1 at 0:0:0.
The default,
NTP (RFC-1305) , is similar to Time (RFC-868) .
Select Manual to enter the new time and new date manually.
Time Server
Address
Enter the IP address or domain name of your timeserver. Check with
your ISP or network administrator if you are unsure of this
information. The default is a.ntp.alphazed.net.
Current Time This field displays an updated time only when you reenter this menu.
New Time Enter the new time in hour, minute and second format. This field is
available when you select Manual in the Time Protocol field.
