Figure 21: MS-Timeservices
To turn your Windows computer into a timeserver, double-click on the clock in the lower right
taskbar and open the following example. After some seconds the tab “Internet Time” appears.
Click on “Internet Time” and check if the timeserver you have chosen here works correctly.
After having configured and started your Microsoft Windows Timeserver you have to reboot
your computer and check the Event Logfile of Windows to ensure, the service was started
correctly. In this case, you can configure your CS121 Timeserver using the IP-address of this
Windows computer.
Note: Please check if your computer is reachable through the network. You
may have to change the Windows Firewall settings.
3.2.5 Events / Alarms
The Event/Alarm-pages are the main feature of the CS121-configuration and are based on a
combination of events and actions (resp. Jobs). At CS121 there are various events defined,
such as e.g. “Powerfail”, “UPS Battery bad”, “Battery low” etc. Each event the CS121-adapter
allows you to release one or more actions. An action can be e.g. to write a logfile-entry in the
alarm-logfile (as default all events do perform an logfile-event), to send an eMail or to perform
an RCCMD-Command (e.g. shutdown signals to several RCCMD Clients). For a short
introduction into the handling of Events and Actions see also the section “Quickstart”.
In this menu the relationships between system events such as alarms and the actions to be
taken those events are defined.
To configure your events and actions open the menu “Events / Alarms”. The menu “Event
Configuration” shows you an overview about the events and the number of configured actions.
