The console’s real time clock is set to observe GMT at the factory and should not be adjusted.
It will however, be necessary to enter the studio’s global location in order to set the appropriate world time-zone offset
value, (unless of course, the studio is also located in a zone that observes GMT).
To enter the timezone selection utility:
• Log in to the console server as ‘
root
’ using the appropriate method shown previously.
• At the server prompt type:
‘system-config-time’ <CR>
.
Ignore the warning about text entry.
• Use the Up/Down arrows to choose the appropriate continent and country locations from the lists provided.
• Tab to
‘OK’
or
‘Cancel’
and press the space-bar to accept.
Do not select the ‘System clock uses UTC’ box.
• Once the selection has been made the programme will return to the ‘
root
’ prompt.
Remember to log out of the root level access when finished.
If the console is fitted with a backup processor it is important to input the correct time zone to both the main and the backup
servers – the servers will not synchronise correctly if set to different time-zones. It can take 10–15 minutes for dual Blackrock
systems to become synchronised.
