User Manual Managed Switches
27
The Weidmüller switch has a time calibration function based on information from an NTP server or
user specified time and date. Functions such as automatic warning emails can therefore include time
and date stamp.
NOTE: The Weidmüller switch does not have a real time clock. The user must update
the Current Time and Current Date to set the initial time for the Weidmüller switch after
each reboot, especially when the network does not have an Internet connection for an
NTP server or there is no NTP server on the LAN.
