Time Synchronization
SNTP server settings for time synchronization. If the time is not set (the date 1.1.1970 is displayed),
the device attempts to synchronize the time approximately once per hour until successful.
SNTP Server
IP address or host name of the SNTP server to synchronize the time with. Preset server is
ntp1.sth.netnod.se
Your time shift compared to time server
Configure the offset of your timezone from the time of the SNTP server.
SNTP servers use UTC time, which is nearly equivalent to GMT (London time). Hence, for
Paris, Berlin, Prague, and other locations within the same time zone, set +1 hour.
Note:
The clock does not run when the device is powered off. The unit contains no
battery. After a power failure, the time will be synchronized with the SNTP server.
Data Logger Settings
Configuration parameters for logging values to a circular buffer within the internal flash memory.
When the buffer is full, the oldest values are overwritten with the newest ones.
This function is supported only by certain Poseidon models
.
Log Period
Period for logging of all values into a logfile
Logfile capacity XXX
The capacity estimate is given in days, hours and minutes. The Poseidon calculates the
capacity based on the number of sensors detected.
Caution:
When the circular buffer is full, the remaining capacity shown will be zero.
Clear the buffer to find out the total capacity.
Report Log Period
Period of sending log via e-mail
Erase log after e-mail
Erases the logfile after it is sent via e-mail. Decreases the size of the e-mail attachment and
can speed up the data transfer
Open logfile
