System Real-Time Clock/Date (TouchDrive)
The panel uses an internal clock to generate the time for logs.
System time can be set manually or from a Network Time server. You can set up between 1 and 4 NTP server IP addresses for the switcher to connect to.
To Set the NTP Server IP Address
The IP addresses the panel will use to connect to the NTP severs.

- Enter the IP addresses of backup NTP servers in the NTP Server 2-4 fields if required.
- Click Update and close the dialog box.
- Click the Timezone list and select the timezone the switcher is currently in.
