Setting the time

Important

If you make a mistake, press ESC to backspace to the digit you want to change.

The system time is displayed by On-board Remote Management and is used internally when logging events and errors. The system time is either regular time or power-on time. Regular time is Month/Date/Year Time, such as Nov/21/2004 19:28. Power-on time is Power On Cycles/Power On Hours. For example, POC: 00121, POH: 00002:07:45 where POC is the number of times the system has booted since it was manufactured, and POH is the number of hours, minutes, and seconds since the last system boot. If regular time is known, it is used, otherwise power-on time is used.

The system time setting on the autoloader must be reset after each power up. The time can be reset automatically if a time server is configured.

Setting the time server

You can connect the autoloader to a SNTP-compatible time server to supply the correct date and time. The autoloader uses this information to time-stamp information in its memory.

To set a time server:

1From the Main menu, click Configuration, then press ENTER. The Configuration submenu opens.

2Scroll to Ethernet, then press ENTER. The Ethernet submenu opens.

3Scroll to Set Time Server, then press ENTER. The cursor automatically appears at the first digit.

4At each position of the time server address use the up and down arrows to change the value of each digit. Press ENTER to advance the cursor to the next digit.

When you have advanced through all of the digits of the time server address, the autoloader displays “Enter to save.”

5Press ENTER. “New Time Server xxx.xxx.xxx” appears on the LCD. You do not need to reboot the autoloader.

6Press ESC or ENTER to return to the Ethernet submenu.

To set the time zone:

1From the Main menu, click Configuration, then press Enter. The Configuration submenu opens.

2Scroll to Time, then press ENTER. The Time submenu opens.

3Scroll to Set Timezone, then press ENTER. The Time Zone screen appears, letting you set the hours. The cursor automatically appears at the first digit.

4Scroll to set the number of hours difference between your local time and Greenwich Mean Time (GMT).
