Setting system date and time
For effective scheduling and logging, the DFL-500 NPG time should be accurate. You can either manually set
the DFL-500 NPG time or you can configure the DFL-500 NPG to automatically keep its time correct by
synchronizing with a Network Time Protocol (NTP) server.
For more information on NTP and to find the IP address of an NTP server that you can use, see
http://www.ntp.org.
To set the date and time:
Go to System > Config > Time .
Select Refresh to display the current DFL-500 NPG date and time.
Select your Time Zone from the list.
If required, select Daylight Saving Time.
Optionally select Set Time and set the DFL-500 NPG date and time to the correct date and time.
Example date and time setting
To configure the DFL-500 NPG to use NTP, select Synchronize with NTP Server.
By default, the DFL-500 NPG is configured to connect to an NTP server at IP address 192.5.5.250,
which is the IP address of an NTP server maintained by the Internet Software Consortium at Palo Alto,
CA, USA.
Optionally enter the IP address of a different NTP server.
