Extron electronic 6400s Sync Time to PC button, GMT offset field, Use Daylight Savings checkbox

Sync Time to PC button

Clicking the mouse on the Sync Time to PC button causes the computer you are operating to send its internal time to the switcher in a set time command.

GMT (offset) field

The GMT field displays the amount of time, in hours and minutes, that the local time varies from the GMT international time reference. If necessary, adjust the offset as follows:

1.	Click in the GMT field. A GMT Offset field appears with the
	offset in the format ±HH:MM (–12:00 to +14:00). The pointer tool
	becomes a text cursor.
2.	Edit the field as desired to set the proper offset. Leading zeroes are optional.
	Some time zones are on the half-hour (30 minutes).
3.	Press the Tab key on the keyboard or click in another field to exit the GMT
	Offset field.
4.	Click the Take button to make the offset change take effect.

Use Daylight Savings checkbox

Click in the Use Daylight Savings checkbox. When Daylight Saving Time is turned on, the switcher automatically updates its internal clock between Standard Time and Daylight Saving Time in the spring and fall on the date that the time change occurs in the country or region selected. When Daylight Saving Time is turned off, the switcher does not adjust its time reference.

Administrator Password and User Password fields

The Administrator Password field displays the password required to log on to the matrix switcher via the Ethernet port with all of the administrator’s rights and privileges. The User Password field displays the password required to log on to the matrix switcher via the Ethernet port as a user, without all of the administrator’s rights and privileges. Passwords are case sensitive and are limited to 12 upper-case and lower-case alphanumeric characters.

While you are logged on as a user, both password fields are masked with asterisks (************) as a security measure.

NEditing the Administrator Password field while connected via the Ethernet port can immediately disconnect the user from the switcher. Extron recommends editing this field using either serial port and protecting the Ethernet access

to this screen by assigning an administrator’s password to qualified and knowledgeable personnel only.

NAn administrator password must be created before a user password can be created.

NThe following characters are invalid in passwords: {space} + ~ , @ = ‘ [ ] { } < > ’ “ ; : \ and ?.

Edit either password field as follows:

1.	Click in the desired Password field. The pointer tool becomes a text cursor.
2.	Edit the case-sensitive password as desired.
3.	Press the Tab key on the keyboard or click in another field to exit the
	Password field.
4.	Click the Take button to make the password change take effect.
