DESCRIPTION

Time Protocol

Select the time service protocol that your time server sends when you turn on the

Prestige. Not all time servers support all protocols, so you may have to check with

your ISP/network administrator or use trial and error to find a protocol that works.
The main difference between them is the format.

Daytime (RFC 867) format is day/month/year/time zone of the server.

Time (RFC 868) format displays a 4-byte integer giving the total number of

seconds since 1970/1/1 at 0:0:0.

The default, NTP (RFC 1305), is similar to Time (RFC 868).

Select None to enter the time and date manually.

Time Server

Address

Enter the IP address or URL of your time server. Check with your ISP or network

administrator if you are unsure of this information.

Current Time

This field displays the time of your Prestige.

Each time you reload this page, the Prestige synchronizes the time with the time

server.

New Time

This field displays the last updated time from the time server.

When you select None in the Time Protocol field, enter the new time in this field

and then click Apply.
