using an NTP server and the other is through an internal battery backup. To
configure the Digi CM for date and time, do the following:
1. Access the web interface.
2. System administration > Date and time.
3. To use an NTP server, choose Enable, the NTP server’s IP address, the
Time offset, and the Date and Time fields.
or
To use the internal battery, fill in the Date and Time fields only.
Note: If you change your time zone, you must go back and reconfigure your time for the
time zone change to be effective.
4. Choose Save & apply.
