Primex BC100 - No Network Mode

No Network mode
No Network mode is required when an Ethernet or Wi-Fi network is not available during installation. During this mode, the Smart-Sync
Bridge does not connect to the facility's network to check-in to OneVue or obtain UTC time from a Network Server.
During No Network mode, the Smart-Sync Bridge is required to be configured with local time, which allows Smart-Sync Clocks to
receive and set their time to the local time configured in the bridge. Local time is configured using the Primex Device Configuration
software.
When the facility's network is available, the device must be set back to Normal (Bton) mode to allow its network connection to the
facility's Ethernet or Wi-Fi network.
How to set a Smart-Sync Bridge to No Network mode
WARNING:
Use of AC-power is required when operating in No Network mode. When operating on only continuous battery backup-
power, the device's estimated battery life is only up to one (1) day.

Verify NoNt is shown on the LCD display, which indicates it's in No Network mode.
Next, configure the bridge with the computer's local time.
How to configure the bridge with local time
The bridge sets its internal time to your computer's local time. If you want to bridge to receive time from a different time zone, change
your computer's time zone before beginning this procedure.
WARNING:
Do not remove power from the bridge during this procedure - it must remain powered on at all times.
