• Update Period
A number indicating the interval in minutes between executions of the program. A
value of zero means the program is not scheduled to run periodically. A non-zero
value means the program will run again in "Update Period" minutes. Updating the
time once a day is generally sufficient to ensure consistently accurate time
reporting.
Default values are:
Server(s) = "" (i.e., a null string which means "disabled")
Quiet Mode = 1
Period = 0
The program also accepts the following command line parameters, all of which override the
registry values:
hosts
A comma separated list of SNTP servers to be queried. The servers will be queried
in order until one is successful.
/Q
Don't report any results and/or problems (quiet).
/N
Report all results and/or problems (noisy).
/P
Run the program periodically according to the period value in the registry.
The SNTPClient program is run as part of the MK2000's StartUp sequence, before any user
programs are run, with the following command line:
SNTPClient /Q /P
This means that it will use the Hosts registry entry if one is available, not report any results
and/or errors, and will schedule itself to run periodically if there's a non-zero Period value
in the registry. Therefore, the default parameters effectively cause the program to be
disabled.
