NOTE. There may be a slight delay between the RTM device time displayed and the actual time on the device due to network delays incurred in retrieving the time. This is most likely to be seen if you apply Sync with Local and observe that the Local and RTM Device times are slightly out of step.

With either Longitudinal Time Code or Simple Network Time Protocol selected from the Time Source drop-down list, the RTM device takes its time from the respective input. Any offset required (for a different time zone) is entered in the UTC to Time Zone Offset field (in minutes) and activated using Set.

To use a remote time server, Simple Network Time Protocol should be selected from the Time Source drop-down list, and the IP address of a suitable SNTP server entered in the SNTP field.
