Management – Date & Time:
Copying the date/time from the time server
The date and time are shown in the idle display of the base and registered handsets.
They are important, for example, for stating the correct time in the answering
machine list, call lists and for the "anniversary", "appointments" and "alarm clock"
functions.
There are various ways to update the date and time:
u
Manually on the base or on one of the registered handsets
u
If your base is connected with the ISDN: Through synchronisation with the ISDN
network during the first outgoing external call made via the ISDN connection
u
Automatically through synchronisation with a time server on the Internet
Activate/deactivate synchronisation with a time server as follows:
¤
Open the Settings
¤
In the Automatic adjustment of System Time with Time Server field, select Yes
to activate synchronisation between the base and a time server. If you select No
the base will not adopt time settings from a time server. In this case, set the time
and date manually using a handset.
¤
The Last synchronisation with time server field indicates the last time the base
compared the time and date settings with a time server. The field is only shown
if synchronisation is enabled.
¤
In the Time Server field, enter the Internet address or DNS name of the time
server from which the base should adopt its time and date settings (maximum
74 characters). The time server "europe.pool.ntp.org" is set as default. You can
overwrite the setting.
¤
From the Country list, select the country in which you are using your phone.
¤
The Time Zone field shows the valid time zone for the Country. It shows the
deviation between local time (not summer time) and Greenwich Mean Time
(GMT).
If a country is divided into various time zones, they will all appear in the list.
Select the appropriate Time Zone for the phone from the list.
¤
The Automatically adjust clock to summer-time changes field is displayed if
your time zone differentiates between British summer time and standard time.
Select Yes if you want the time to change automatically to summer time or
standard time when British summer time begins and ends respectively.
Select No if you do not want to change to summer time.
Please note: If the date and time are updated by a time server that automatically
switches between summer time and standard time, you must always select No
here.
¤
Select the Set button to save the settings in your phone.
Once you have activated synchronisation, the time and date are compared with a
time server as soon as an Internet connection is established.
