Function Description

General
During operation, the device needs the date and time for all time-relevant processes. The term time is used
throughout this section to refer to both the date and the time.
The time synchronization in the device is necessary to guarantee a common time basis for the communication
with peripheral devices and time stamping of the process data.
The device supports both external and internal time synchronization. The type of time synchronization is
specified during the parameterization. The external time synchronization from an NTP server is preferred.

The time format is described in detail in the RFC 5905 (Request for Comments 5905 for NTP).
