Operation as NTP client
Four IP addresses of NTP servers can be assigned for SICLOCK TC 400 as NTP
client.
The servers are polled regularly and, on the basis of a strict selection strategy, a
preferred server is selected.
For the strategy when a server fails, see
Redundancy
(Section 2.6).
NTP client
You can activate the client service with the /NTP Client/NTP Client (0.18.01)
parameter.
IP address of the NTP servers
Four IP addresses of the NTP servers can be assigned with the /NTP Client/NTP
Server List[4] (0.18.02) parameter. Address 0.0.0.0 means that no server has
been entered.
DNS names are not supported.
Current NTP server
The /NTP Client/Active Server (0.18.03) parameter displays the currently
selected NTP server. Address 0.0.0.0 means that no server has been entered.
Monitoring the servers
The /NTP Client/Monitoring/monitor server (0.18.04) parameter can be used to
set up the monitoring of the NTP servers.
