all devices in the system that have clocks (i.e. touch panels). By the same

 

 

 

token, if you set the date on any system device, the new date will be

 

 

 

reflected on the system’s Master, and all connected devices.

 

 

 

This will not update clocks on devices connected to another Master (in

 

 

 

Master-to-Master systems).

token, if you set the time on any system device, the new time will be

 

 

 

reflected on the system’s Master, and all connected devices.

 

 

 

This will not update clocks on devices connected to another Master (in

 

 

 

Master-to-Master systems)
