Set the Date and Time
1. Access the System Setup screen (see Accessing the System Setup Screen
on page 99).
2. Click Edit next to Date And Time in the Other Settings pane. The Date
and Time screen displays showing the method currently selected for
setting the date and time.
3. Select the method you want to use for setting the date and time.
Note: Changing the method of setting the library time and date from
Automatic Time and Date Settings (NTP) to Manual Time and Date
Settings or the other way around requires an LCM reboot to
enable the new setting.
If you select... Then...
Automatic Time
and Date Settings
(NTP)
If not already displayed, the Date and Time screen refreshes to show options
for configuring a Network Time Protocol (NTP) server.
1. Enter the NTP Hostname for the NTP server you want to use. Do not include
!@#$^&*()> and < in the NTP hostname (for information about NTP, see
http://support.ntp.org/bin/view/Main/WebHome).
2. Select the Time Zone you want to use (typically the one corresponding to the
location of the library).
3. Click Save. As soon as you click Save, the library reboots to start using the
new settings.
Notes:
Because the NTP server is addressed using a hostname instead of an IP
address, you must configure at least one DNS server before you can use NTP
(see Configure Network Settings on page 112).
After you configure NTP, it can take up to an hour for the time to synchronize
with the NTP server.
