== Normal connected system == | |||
During normal operation, the system is assumed to be connected to a network with Internet access. Time is normally automatically kept synchronized and updated when the system is powered on. In the case where Internet time is not available, the system relies on a built-in accurate clock. This clock will run for a reasonable amount of time when power is disconnected, and the backup power source will recharge when the system is plugged in. | During normal operation, the system is assumed to be connected to a network with Internet access.

=== Time zone === | |||
Verify that the selected time zone is correct for your location. | |||
=== Automatic DST === | |||
If the switch has a check-mark, daylight time will auto-adjust with no user intervention. | |||
=== Automatic Clock Sync === | |||
Make sure the switch has a check-mark (not an X) to indicate that Internet time will be used to synchronize your clock. If you need to customize the time server, our technicians can remotely configure this for you. | |||
If the switch is off, the button to manually set the time will appear. Do not enter incorrect times here to shift the ringing schedule. Incorrect time will inhibit remote control and management connections. | |||
=== Tower clock control === | |||
Installations with tower clock control will have a status banner at the top of this screen. On the right side of the screen is a button to manually let the system know what time the tower clock hands are indicating. Next to the button, the assumed time the tower clock hands are pointing to is displayed. | |||
When you tap the Set Clock Hands button, the system will stop advancing the tower clock so you can check its hand position. After you adjust the indicated minutes and hour, tap save. The clock will restart. If the hands are behind actual time, the clock will fast advance at a rate of one minute every 10 seconds. If the tower clock is ahead, it may wait for actual time to catch up with the hands (depending upon how far off it was). | |||
