Configure Digital Clock
Issue
Question:
How can a digital clock from type NTP or PoE? be configured ?
Solution
1) You can contact our export division for an offer of our Network Management Software
MOBA-NMS. This software offers very easy administration and commissioning of all
network devices (analog and digital NTP clocks) as well as network master clocks and
timeservers.
2) If no software should be used, you have to use the two buttons on the top of the case
and do the following steps:
- press right button longer than 3 sec for entering the menu
- press left button shortly to select the menus (P0, P1, P2 …)
- press right button shortly to change the parameters
DC clocks:
Check in DC manual chapter 5 (page 28) for the different menus.
Do the following settings:
- P0 = A
- P1 = 24
- P2 = according your requirements, see manual
- P3 = A
- P4 = A
- P5 = not used
- P6 = 0 (off)
- P7 = select your local time according the time zone table chapter 15
- P8 = do not change
- P9 = do not change
- P10 = according your requirements
- P11 = according your requirements
- P12 = according your requirements
- P13 – 18 = not used
- P19 = 3 for NTP Unicast with DHCP server
-- P19 = 2 for NTP Unicast with manual IP setting (see P20 to P22 for Network
parameter settings and P24 for NTP server IP address)
-- P19 = 1 for NTP Multicast (see P23 for Multicast group address)
- P24 = NTP server IP address in Unicast mode (a, b, c, d)
-- P24 last number corresponds to the Poll intervall, default value is 10 seconds.
If the defined NTP server is available, the clock should be synchronized within several
seconds.
ECO-DC clocks:
Check in ECO-DC manual chapter 6 (page 16) for the different menus.
Do the following settings:
- P0 = A
- P1 = 24
- P2 = according your requirements, see manual
- P3 = A
- P4 = A
- P5 = 0 (off)
- P6 = select your local time according the time zone table chapter 8
- P7 = 3 for NTP Unicast with DHCP server
-- P7 = 2 for NTP Unicast with manual IP setting (see P20 to P22 for Network parameter
settings and P24 for NTP server IP address)
-- P7 = 1 for NTP Multicast (see P11 for Multicast group address)
- P8 = IP address (for P7 = 2)
- P9 = Subnet mask (For P7 = 2)
- P10 = Gateway (For P7 = 2)
- P11 = Multicast address (For P7 = 1)
- P12 = NTP server IP address in Unicast mode (a, b, c, d)
-- P12 last number corresponds to the Poll intervall, default value is 10 seconds.
- press Left button longer than 3 sec. to leave the IP set menu
The same procedure is used to set the Subnet mask (P9) and the Gateway (P10) and
for NTP server address in P12.
Please check the correct IP setting with ping.
If the defined NTP server is available, the clock should be synchronized within several
seconds.
3) Once network parameters are set, the clocks can be configured via Telnet (see
manual).
The default password for the Telnet connection is 718084 (for DC, ECO-DC, DA, DK,
DSC clocks with NTP synchronization.
