Owner's Manual Addendum

TASCAM HD-R1

Automatic time adjustment

function

This unit can automatically access an NTP server on the

Internet once per day to synchronize the current date and

time (system time).

CAUTION

Take care when connecting the HD-R1 to a network

that is route-able from the public internet. Telnet access

requires no password, so the HD-R1 can be controlled

at any time by anyone who knows the IP address.
The server access will automatically be set to tock.usno.

navy.mil, time.windows.com or pool.ntp.org. Other

servers cannot be selected.
Automatic time adjustment will occur 24 hours after

the last server access.

The addition of this function changes the System Time

item in the Utilities menu described in chapter 3–Screens

and Menus of the Owner's Manual.
Previously, selecting

Setup System Time

and pressing

the ENTER key opened the

Setup System Time

submenu where you could manually set the date and

time.

The current date and time (system time) of the real-time

would be shown as:

6:46:58pm May 26, 2010

.
