10.3.1 Time Options
Select the “Time Options” tab to configure the time zone and national time server clock settings. If the MCT is
connected to the internet, these settings can be used to have the MCT automatically synchronize its time with
one of the nationally provided time servers.
To enable the national time server, select your time zone and which time server you wish to use from the drop-
down
menu selections. Turn on the “NTP Service Enable” option and press the “Save” button. The MCT will
then synchronize its time with the selected national time server at 2:00AM each day.
If the MCT
is not connected to the internet, a local alarm message will be shown on the alarm screen; “
NTP
Failure. Check cable
and server”
to indicate that the time server could not be located.
10.3.1.1 Local Time Server Settings
If an active internet connection is not available, or company policy prohibits internet access, the MCT can be
configured to use a local time server instead of one of the national time servers. To configure the use of a local
time server, select “local” from the NTP server list. When selected, the “Name/IP” entry field will be shown.
The computer name or IP address of the computer running the local timer server on the LAN can then be
entered. The MCT will then contact the local computer in order to synchronize time.
NOTE: The steps required to configure and provide NTP service from a computer on the LAN is outside the
scope of this manual. Contact your network administrator for assistance.
10.3.2 Daylight Savings
Select the
“Daylight” tab to configure daylight saving time options. The daylight savings time options allow the
user to set the start date and end date for daylight savings time.
NOTE: If the NTS time server setting is enabled, and the selected time zone uses daylight savings time,
daylight savings must be properly configured and enabled or the clock will not show the correct time.
