  • Page 39 Your P-971M sent a request to the time-of-day (ToD) server specified by the DHCP server, but it did not receive a reply within the specified timeout period. Your P-971M defaults to setting its onboard clock to midnight on January 1, 1970. Your P-971M can now proceed with the registration process without receiving a ToD response, but will continue trying to contact the ToD server every 5 minutes until it receives a valid response.
