User manual

clock date Adjust the date of the camera. This setting is important when
transferring images to a remote FTP server, at which time the
default settings will use the date to create files. Enter the date in
the Month/Day/Year format (MM/DD/YY). The default link will
set the camera to match the date on the user's computer.
clock time Adjust the time on the camera. Enter the time in hours:minutes
format (HH:MM). Alternately, use the IP Timeserver setting.
Before setting the clock, make sure the correct timezone has been
set. Never compensate for the timezone by setting the clock -
adjust the timezone itself.
Most of this information is sent using GMT a format that does not
contain a timezone setting. The camera will operate better if the
timezone is properly configured.
timeserver protocol Select the type of timeserver available on the network (if any):
Daytime, NTP (Network Timeserver Protocol), or None.
timerserver IP address Enter the IP address of the timeserver on the local
subnet (if any). The timeserver automatically updates the camera's
time setting.
NTP behavior Check Passive to enable the acceptance of incoming time
broadcasts from the NTP server on the local subnet. Uncheck
Passive to ignore incoming NTP broadcasts.
Checking Broadcast will cause the camera to send NTP broadcasts
to find an available timeserver on the subnet. Uncheck Broadcast
to disable NTP broadcasts. If a timeserver IP address is set, the
camera will use that specific timeserver until it fails to respond.
IP address Displays the camera’s current IP address. RARP/DHCP/BOOTP
Enables or disables querying for a RARP, DHCP, or BOOTP host
when the camera boots. If the camera sits on a network that uses
such a server, the host can supply the camera with an IP address at
boot time.
If the camera sits on a network that has a DHCP server, the camera
can get its address from that server. If possible, configure the
server to supply the camera with a static IP address. For more
information on this method, consult with the system administrator
or refer to the documentation that accompanied the DHCP server.
If a dynamic IP address must be used, configure the camera to send
an e-mail or FTP containing the newly assigned IP address. Refer
to the Server Commands chapter of the Reference Manual for
more details on the DHCP notification feature.
Refer to the RARP, DHCP, or BOOTP server documentation for
information on configuring the server to respond to the camera.
