Set Clock
All measurements are date and time stamped (24 hour format) when stored into
memory. It is therefore important to keep both the date and time current using this menu
option. Use the Up and Down buttons to scroll, and the (-) and (+) buttons to adjust
value. The Gage’s date and time can also be viewed in Gage Info and on top of the
main menu.
NTP

(Network Time Protocol).
Enter a NTP Server address and TZ (Time Zone) details. The PosiTector uses POSIX
format to set the time zone.

From left to right:
- EST5 is the time zone name and offset from UTC
- EDT4 is the daylight savings time zone name and offset from UTC
- M3.2.0 is the start of EDT. ‘M’ specifies that the date will follow a ‘Month.Week.Day’
format. 3.2.0 is the third month, second week, first day (Sunday)
- M11.1.0 is the end of EDT. ‘M’ specifies that the date will follow a ‘Month.Week.Day’
