Owner's Manual Addendum

TASCAM HD-R1
Automatic time adjustment
function
This unit can automatically access an NTP server on the
Internet once per day to synchronize the current date and
time (system time).
CAUTION
Take care when connecting the HD-R1 to a network
•
that is route-able from the public internet. Telnet access
requires no password, so the HD-R1 can be controlled
at any time by anyone who knows the IP address.
The server access will automatically be set to tock.usno.
•
navy.mil, time.windows.com or pool.ntp.org. Other
servers cannot be selected.
Automatic time adjustment will occur 24 hours after
•
the last server access.
The addition of this function changes the System Time
item in the Utilities menu described in chapter 3–Screens
and Menus of the Owner's Manual.
Previously, selecting
Setup System Time
and pressing
the ENTER key opened the
Setup System Time
submenu where you could manually set the date and
time.
