NTP (NETWORK TIME PROTOCOL) SETUP
NTP allows clock synchronization between computer systems
over packet-switched, variable-latency data networks. This is
done from the :8080 Configuration web page, in the Time panel.
1. Click "Change" to open the Time panel. Enter NTP server
address: This is user defined NTP server address for the
company that is on the same network as the View-R.
2. Check the "NTP Enable" box at the top and enter server
address. Click "Submit" to save changes and enable.
IN ORDER FOR A DEVICE TO SYNCHRONIZE WITH AN NTP SERVER,
THE TIME DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE NTP SERVER AND THE VIEW-R'S
CURRENT TIME MUST BE LESS THAN 1000 SECONDS (ABOUT 16
MINUTES). 
THE USER MAY NEED TO FIRST MANUALLY EDIT THE VIEW-R'S TIME
BEFORE ATTEMPTING NTP SYNC.
The arrangement for the date and time must match the shown
format.
NOTE: Timezone and time are changed separately. First change
the timezone and then set the correct time.
