GLOBAL PASSWORD
The Global Password feature allows the user to enter a single
password for all NTP devices using the same password. During
this session and subsequent sessions of WinDiscovery, you will
not have to enter the password.
1. Check [Enable Global Password].
2. Type your password.
3. Click [OK]
To disable the Global Password, de-select the [Enable Global
Password] checkbox and click [OK].
[DEVICE SETTINGS] BUTTON
The “Device Settings” window includes three
sections. In “Configurable options” the [Input
Control] button takes you to a [NTP button].
Clicking it permits the user to enable or disable the
NTP client. If enabled, you can choose Query,
Broadcast or Multicast services to receive Time
Code.
The [Nework Configuration] button and window
are detailed on page 15.
The [Display Properties] button and window (at
left) permits the user to change the brightness of
the LEDs, to change the Time/Date presentation
order, to choose 12 or 24-hour time formats with
leading zeroes on or off and to choose UTC or local
time (once local time offsets have been input).
The [Communications Control] button and window
enable or disable Telnet.
The “Local Time Settings” section includes two
buttons for [Daylight Savings Time] and [Time
Zone/Time Offset] to offset your displayed time
from UTC to Local time.
The [Save] and [Save and Close] buttons must be
clicked before hitting the [Exit] button. Otherwise
any entered changes will not take effect.

The Global Password being used must
match the password on all the devices
being administered. On any new system
being installed, the factory default
password on all devices is “public”.
