time of the device.
Possible values are 64 to 2592000 seconds (30 days).

Procedure
Time-of-day synchronization with NTP server
1. Click in the "NTP Client" check box to enable the automatic time setting using NTP.
2. In "Time Zone", enter the local time difference to world time (UTC).
The input format is "+/-HH:MM" because the NTP server always sends UTC time, for
example +02:00 for CEST, the Central European Summer Time. This time is recalculated
and displayed as the local time based on the specified time zone.
3. Select the "NTP Server Index".
4. Click the "Create" button.
A new row is inserted in the table for the NTP server.
5. In "NTP Server Address", enter the address of the NTP server whose frames are used to
synchronize the time of day.
6. In "NTP Server Port", enter the port via which the NTP server is available. The port can only
be modified if the address of the NTP server is entered.
7. In the "Poll Interval" column, enter the interval in seconds after which a new time-of-day
query is sent to the time server.
8. Click the "Set Values" button.
