GE INFORMATION
CHAPTER 12: USING THE D400 LOCAL CONFIGURATION UTILITY
menu allows you set the D400's internal date
Description
Use this function to display the time, time zone, and synchronization
settings currently configured.
Use this function to configure the current calendar date and time of
day.
Note : The D400 system time is automatically set to the firmware
build time whenever the D400 reboots and the system time is less
than the firmware build time.
Use this function to enter the time zone of the D400.
Note : The D400 uses the IEEE POSIX® standard for time zone
naming. POSIX uses the time zone offset to get GMT from the local
time (that is, GMT - local time) instead of the more common format
(local time - GMT). For example, Eastern Standard Time in North
America, which is 5 hours behind GMT, is listed as "GMT+5", and not
"GMT-5".
Configures the D400 to use either IRIG-B or NTP to calibrate the
system clock.
• IRIG-B: Enter the IRIG-B format, options are TTL (pulse width
code), Sine wave (amplitude modulated), and Manchester.
Ensure SW2 of the IRIG-B Input Adapter is configured for the
proper input type: Fiber Optic or TTL for TTL and Manchester,
BNC for Sine wave.
• NTP: Enter the IP address of the NTP server. The D400 verifies if
the source is accessible by pinging the address.
When configuring a D.20 RIO, refer to the D.20 RIO Hardware User's
Manual (994-0141) section: Time Synchronization Strategies.
Use this function to configure the D400 to operate as an NTP time
server.
