Network Time Update: SNTP Client

The MK3100 Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) client can automatically set and update the MK3100 time
and date through the network. Use this feature to set the system time and date after reboots or power outages.
This feature also ensures consistent time and date stamping across a fleet of MK3100s. The SNTP Client
program queries the specified SNTP server over the network to set the time and date.
The SNTP client shipped with MK3100 Microsoft Windows Embedded Compact 7 is the Microsoft default
SNTP Client program.

Memory Management

The MK3100 has 8 GB of available flash memory. The data partition (folder) has no available memory. The
data stored in flash memory persists through cold boot cycles.
Add a microSD card to the MK3100 to increase the non-volatile memory available for file storage.

RAM: Volatile (Non-Persistent) Memory

The MK3100 has 1 GB of RAM volatile memory. Developers can automate control of the device's RAM
(volatile) memory allocation (storage vs. memory used to run programs) to persist memory allocation settings
through cold boot cycles.
