Sync Time to PC button

Clicking the mouse on the Sync Time to PC button causes the computer you are
operating to send its internal time to the switcher in a set time command.

GMT (offset) field

The GMT field displays the amount of time, in hours and minutes, that the local
time varies from the GMT international time reference. If necessary, adjust the
offset as follows:
1. Click in the GMT field. A GMT Offset field appears with the
offset in the format ±HH:MM (–12:00 to +14:00). The pointer tool
becomes a text cursor.
2. Edit the field as desired to set the proper offset. Leading zeroes are optional.
Some time zones are on the half-hour (30 minutes).
3. Press the Tab key on the keyboard or click in another field to exit the GMT
Offset field.
4. Click the Take button to make the offset change take effect.

Use Daylight Savings checkbox

Click in the Use Daylight Savings checkbox. When Daylight Saving Time is turned
on, the switcher automatically updates its internal clock between Standard Time
and Daylight Saving Time in the spring and fall on the date that the time change
occurs in the country or region selected. When Daylight Saving Time is turned off,
the switcher does not adjust its time reference.

Administrator Password and User Password fields

The Administrator Password field displays the password required to log on to the
matrix switcher via the Ethernet port with all of the administrator's rights and
privileges. The User Password field displays the password required to log on to the
matrix switcher via the Ethernet port as a user, without all of the administrator's
rights and privileges. Passwords are case sensitive and are limited to 12 upper-case
and lower-case alphanumeric characters.
While you are logged on as a user, both password fields are masked with asterisks
(************) as a security measure.
N Editing the Administrator Password field while connected via the Ethernet port
can immediately disconnect the user from the switcher. Extron recommends
editing this field using either serial port and protecting the Ethernet access
to this screen by assigning an administrator's password to qualified and
knowledgeable personnel only.
N An administrator password must be created before a user password can be
created.
N The following characters are invalid in passwords:
{space} + ~ , @ = ' [ ] { } < > ' " ; : | \ and ?.
Edit either password field as follows:
1. Click in the desired Password field. The pointer tool becomes a text cursor.
2. Edit the case-sensitive password as desired.
Press the Tab key on the keyboard or click in another field to exit the
3.
Password field.
4. Click the Take button to make the password change take effect.
