TYMSERVE 2000
synchronize to the timing source faster if the newest information is saved since this information
is used to initialize the TYMSERVE.
4.5 SAVING PARAMETERS
All programmable parameters can be saved in EEPROM inside the TYMSERVE 2000. It is
obviously desirable to save your setup parameters so that they will be retained during loss of
power. To save the parameters, press <5> SAVE at the main menu. If the TYMSERVE detects
changes in the parameters then the new parameters will be saved, and the number of writes to the
EEPROM will be displayed. If you press <5> SAVE and the parameters have not been changed
then the TYMSERVE will not 'waste' a write to the EEPROM, and a message to this effect will
be displayed. The EEPROM can be written up to 10,000 times.
4.6 EXITING THE MENU SYSTEM
To exit the menu system press <6> EXIT from the main menu. You must exit the menu system
before the NETWORK and TIMING parameter changes will take effect. The TYMSERVE
will automatically exit the main menu if no key is pressed for about 10 seconds.
4.7 NETWORK PARAMETER DESCRIPTION (all versions)
This section describes the NETWORK parameters for all TYMSERVE versions.
Internet Address: The Internet address is the address at which the TYMSERVE will respond to
NTP messages. The 'well known' UDP port number for NTP is 123.
Subnet Mask: The subnet mask allows you to break up your network into sub-networks.
Default Gateway: The TYMSERVE will route packets destined for remote networks through
the default gateway at this address.
Ethernet Frame Format: Most of the world is using the DIX Ethernet format (aka Ethernet II,
Bluebook), but more and more networks are starting to use the IEEE 802.3 (with 802.2 headers)
frame format. The TYMSERVE will work with either of these two Ethernet frame formats.
NOTE: Your Ethernet format is probably DIX, so if the TYMSERVE fails to respond to
pings or time requests then you probably have selected the wrong Ethernet frame format.
SNMPv1 R/O: This sets the SNMPv1 read-only community name. The value is a 1 to 8
character ASCII string. The default value is "public".
SNMPv1 R/W: This sets the SNMPv2 read-write community name. The value is a 1 to 8
character ASCII string. The default value is "bancomm".
Party4 TAddress: The Party4 TAddress is the IP address (in dotted decimal format) of the
Datum Inc, Bancomm Div. TYMSERVE 2000 Manual
