D-2 RSFieldbus Time Stamping Setup
RSFieldbus Server Set Up
1. The IDShellHSE.ini file must be edited to recognize the SNTP time
server and to pass the time zone adjusted dates. The file is located in
C:\Program Files\Rockwell Software\RSFieldbus\OleServers. The
pertinent entries that need edited are in bold face.
StdTimeDiff=0
PriTimeSvr=0.0.0.0
SecTimeSvr=0.0.0.0
ReqTimeout=10000 ; 10 s
ReqInterval=25000 ; 25 s
TargetClass=1 ; 1 s
SchedPeriod=0
DayTimeDiff=0
StartDayTime=0
EndDayTime=0
StdTimeDiff is the actual time zone information. The parameter is
measured in 1/32 ms time units. The value entered gets
SUBTRACTED from GMT. So a negative value effectively adds to
GMT (time zones east of GMT).
Examples:
• Eastern Time (US and Canada), which is GMT -5 hours:
576000000=(5 * 60 * 60 * 1000 * 32)
• Athens, which is GMT 2 hours: -230400000=(-2 * 60 * 60 * 1000 *
32)
PriTimeSvr is the IP address of the SNTP server. Note that you can
have a secondary time server if there is a need for redundancy.
The last three entries are used if daylight savings time is in effect and
you need to coordinate with it.
DayTimeDiff is the actual time zone information when daylight saving
is in effect. The parameter is also measured in 1/32 ms time units. The
value entered gets SUBTRACTED from GMT. So a negative value
effectively adds to GMT (time zones east of GMT).
