Configuring the Real-Time Clock
The real-time clock on the SmartServer provides the Event Scheduler with
calculated sunrise and sundown times. To configure the real-time clock, you
specify an existing SNTP time server to add to the LAN on which the
SmartServer resides or you manually specify the time. After you store the time
of day on the SmartServer, you enter the geographic coordinates of the
SmartServer.
Based on this information, the astronomical position sensor application on the
SmartServer calculates the position of the sun relative to the SmartServer and
stores this information in nvoElevation_005 and nvoAzimuth_005
SNVT_angle_deg data points. The SmartServer then uses the data points to
calculate the sunrise and sundown times and stores the results in nvoSunrise
and nvoSunset SNVT_time_stamp data points. The information in these data
points is then passed to the Event Scheduler so that you can create events based
on the calculated sunrise and sundown times.
Setting the SmartServer Time
For the SmartServer to calculate the position of the sun, you need to store the
time of day on it. You can add an SNTP time server to the LAN on which the
SmartServer resides, or you can manually configure the time.
Adding an SNTP Time Server
To specify an SNTP server to add to the LAN, perform the following steps:
1. Right-click the LAN icon or a dial-out connection icon, select Add Host,
and select Server (LNS, Email, Time, IP 852, WebTarget) from the
shortcut menu, or if are you adding the time service to an existing server
on the LAN, skip to step 4.
2. The Setup Host Web page opens, and a server icon is added one level
below the LAN icon at the bottom of the navigation pane or one level
below the dial-out connection icon.
