System Clock: Manual Setting

Tip

A Multi SA can synchronize the clock of a Rapid Eye Multi-Media unit using a PC’s clock as reference. This is more useful for units connected only by dial-up, but can also be used for units on a LAN.

Check/set the clock on an operator's PC, before setting a unit's clock manually.

Adjusting the Clock on a PC Running Rapid Eye Software

To adjust a PC’s time, date and time zone, click Start followed by Settings, Control Panel and Date/Time. Check the accuracy of the time and the time zone on the PC and adjust it as needed.
