Setting the Time Zone

The HomeTroller is pre-configured for the correct date and time for Eastern Standard Time (US).
To change the time zone for your unit, follow these steps:
1) Double Click on the clock in the lower right hand corner of the screen. Set the time zone
from the Time Zone tab.
2) Since this change is a change to the operating system, you need to commit the change
to disk. Right click on the HSProtect system tray icon and select "Save Changes to Drive
C". Now restart the unit to commit the changes.

Using RealVNC for Remote Access

RealVNC is a freeware software tool that will allow you to access the Windows® interface of the
HomeTroller from any remote computer via home network (LAN) or the internet (WAN). The
HomeTroller is shipped with RealVNC pre-installed for remote access.

on how to do this.
