The master clock is the NTP server
In Configuration menu, select Time outputs and select NTP server.
In NTP server mode, the master clock sends the time to the selected IP addresses with the
selected mode of transmission.
The clients will be in Broadcast or Multicast mode.
For unicast client, you will have to enter the IP address of the master clock in the configuration
parameters of the client.
In the menu, select "Alarms" (see page 35).
The master clock system alarms can be sent by e-mail to the selected addresses (up to 5
addresses), and by SNMP.
