How to set clock synchronization?
The system comes equipped with internal real-time clock (RTC) that keeps track of the current date
and time. Once the system is up and running, the user must set the correct date and time, otherwise the
system will not operate properly.
SERA2 software provides the ability to select the Time Zone and The user may also choose Set
module time from PC, which instantly provides the exact PC time. When the system is connected to the
monitoring station via IP connection the date and time will be automatically synchronized with the monitoring
station. It is possible to select automatically time synchronization with: GSM Modem, Cloud Server or disable
it.
