Administration: General Options

Information about the Cooling Unit

Identification

Use this option to define the System Name, Contact, and Location values used to identify the cooling unit. For example, you might configure Name as Test Lab, Contact (whom to contact about the device) as Donald Adams, and Location as Building 3.

Date & time

Mode. Use this option to set the time and date used by the cooling unit. The option displays the current settings, and allows you to change those settings manually or through a Network Time Protocol (NTP) Server.

Manual: Use this selection to do one of the following:

Enter the date and time for the cooling unit

Mark the checkbox Apply Local Computer Time to match the date and time settings of the computer you are using, and click Apply.

Synchronize with NTP Server: Use this selection to have an NTP Server define the date and time for the cooling unit.

secondary server is available.

 

 

Time Zone

Select a time zone. The number of hours preceding each time zone in the list is

 

the offset from UTC (Coordinated Universal Time, Temps Universel Coordonné,

 

formerly Greenwich Mean Time), the international time standard.

 

 

Update Interval

Define how often, in hours, the cooling unit accesses the NTP Server for an

 

update. The minimum is 1 hour; the maximum is 8760 hours (1 year).

 

 

Update Using

Mark this checkbox and click Apply to initiate an immediate update of the date

and time by the NTP Server.

 

 

Enable and configure Daylight Saving Time. Use this option to enable either traditional United States Daylight Saving Time (DST) or to enable and configure a customized daylight saving time, with starting and ending dates and time that you specify to match how Daylight Saving Time is implemented in your local area. DST is disabled by default.

When customizing Daylight Saving Time:

If the local Daylight Saving Time always starts or ends on the 4th occurrence of a specific weekday of a month (for example, the 4th Sunday), choose Fourth/Last. If a 5th Sunday occurs in that month in a subsequent year, the time setting will still change to or from Daylight Saving Time on the 4th Sunday.

If the local Daylight Saving Time always starts or ends on the last occurrence of a specific weekday of a month, such as the last Sunday of that month, regardless of whether that last Sunday is the 4th or the 5th Sunday, choose Fifth/Last.
