When the warm-up time has passed, the R&S SMB100B executes the internal
adjustments and shuts down, when completed.
15.3.2 Date and time
The R&S SMB100B uses an internal real-time clock to determine the date and time. It
adjusts the time and date to the timezone of your location automatically, by providing a
selection list of continents and cities.
The instrument records the time whenever you create or modify files on your instru-
ment or you use timed licenses. By default, the instrument is set to the UTC timezone,
but you can select the timezone according to your location.
Moreover, the instrument supports NTP protocol for synchronizing all connected instru-
ments and computer systems to minimize time delays in the network.
15.3.2.1 Date and time settings
Access:
► Select "System Config > Setup > Maintenance > Date / Time".
The "Date / Time" dialog contains the time and data settings of the operating sys-
tem.
This function is password-protected. Unlock the protection level 1 to access it.
You can also set the time zone for your location, and select a time protocol control-
led by a time server for synchronization.
The required remote commands are described in Chapter 12.16, "SYSTem subsys-
tem", on page 517.
