5.2 Setting the date and time
The instrument has a built-in real time clock (RTC) to
keep track of the current date and time.
You can synchronize the time to a network time server or
set the time manually for each instrument.
Synchronizing to a network time server
The Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) synchronizes
the clock to a server synchronized to a source, such as a
radio, satellite receiver, or modem. The server sends a
timestamp in Coordinated Universal Time (UTC), and
needs time zone information to set the correct local time.
