NTP

Scout provides three different NTP settings:

None: NTP is not active. Scout’s internal real
time clock is used as the reference. When using
the internal clock as reference, please make
certain the time is correct.

Accept NTP Broadcasts: Scout will accept NTP broadcasts. Use this setting if you are using a
system clock.

Poll NTP Server: Scout will Poll a NTP Server at a specific IP address. This setting can be used
to poll at external NTP source located on the Internet.
