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.

  1. From the tree view for the control panel, double-click Configuration > Date Time.
  2. Click Edit NTP Config.


  3. In the NTP Server 1 field, enter the IP address of the Network Time Protocol server you want to use to set the system time.
  4. Enter the IP addresses of backup NTP servers in the NTP Server 2-4 fields if required.
  5. Click Update and close the dialog box.
  6. Click the Timezone list and select the timezone the switcher is currently in.

When the switcher has established a connection with the NTP server the NTP Syn Status will show Synced.
