Setup Wizard: System Time
NTP
NTP stands for "Network Time Protocol". It's a way for the DVR to connect to the Internet and automatically update and maintain
accurate time. There's no requirement to use NTP, but it's easy to setup and free to use, so there's really no reason not to.
NTP Server: The default server used to obtain accurate time.
NTP Port: The default is 123. You should only change this if you're using a different NTP server, and you know they use a different
port. If you're using pool.ntp.org, ensure the port is 123.
Sync: Triggers the DVR to automatically synchronize its internal clock with the time server immediately. If your DVR is connected
to the Internet, the DVR will update the time immediately.
System Time: The DVR's current date and time.

DST Configuration

If your time zone observes daylight saving time and you want your DVR's clock to be updated automatically when daylight saving
time starts and ends, make sure the Enable checkbox is selected. You can configure when daylight saving time starts and ends,
for example - 2 a.m. on the first Sunday of a particular month.
Note: Make sure your time offset is set correctly or both your DVR's normal time and DST time may be out.
Offset: The amount by which the time changes during DST. For the vast majority of locations, the offset is one hour, but
exceptions to this rule exist.
Start Time / End Time: When DST begins and ends in your locale.
