Clock Settings
When in Standby mode, SoundBridge can display the date and time, similar to the screen
below.
1:17:49 PM
Monday, April 17, 2006
You can customize the clock display in a number of ways:
1. When in Standby mode, use the Left/R ight ◁ ▷ arrows to adjust the brightness of the clock
display. (This will not affect the brightness settings of the display whe n in regular playback
mode.) Turn the brightness all the way down until you see the word “Standby” to have the
screen go completely blank when in Standby. If the screen is blank, pressing the Se lect [4]
key will momentarily display the time and date.
2. When in Standby mode, use the up/down △ ▽ arrows to cycl e through modes of display.
For example, you can display large and small fonts, display the time but not the date, etc.
(Again, these settings will not be applied to your display when you resume Soun dBridge’s
regular playback mode.)
3. Use the SoundBridge web page to configure the format of the date and tim e. You can also
turn off the clock display altogether. Please see the “SoundBridge Web Inter face” chapter of
this user guide for instructions on launching your SoundBridge web pag e.
After your web page is launched, click on the Configuration tab. Scroll down on the pa ge until
you see a screen that looks similar to the one on page 43.
Here, you can customize how your time appears and correct errors in the display of yo ur date
and time. First, be sure that your time zone is selected correctly. SoundBrid ge uses an Internet
connection to display the proper time for your time zone. If your Internet connec tion is not
available, SoundBridge will be unable to display the date and time in Standby mode.
Note that the default configuration of the date and time fields depends upon the langu age you
have selected for your SoundBridge display, but may be edited to suit your needs.
Format your time display by choosing what to display in each of four fields. SoundBridge
“strings together” all the fields to create the time display. For example, if you don’t want to
see seconds, or don’t want to see “AM/PM”, select the hour and minute format, then choose
the “Leave Blank” in the remaining drop down menus. Take note of the small text-entry boxes
to the right of the pop-up menus. This is where you enter the character that sho uld appear
between the sections of the time. For example, enter a colon ( “:”) for the usual “12:15” format.
