TS-3000i Web Clock Installation & Operation Guide 4-1
Chapter 4: TS-3000i Operation
General Information
After the TS-3000i Web clock has been unpacked, wall mounted
(optional), connected to a network, and plugged into AC power, the
Zeroconf capability should allow the clock to be automatically detected
with a Web browser. Amano recommends to install and use the TS-
3000i Utility that came on the CD included with your TS-3000i clock if:
 Your browser does not support the Bonjour plug-in, or you do not
want to install Bonjour.
 You want to use the features of the Utility to; find clocks, obtain clock
setup, obtain clock transactions (timesync info), monitor clocks
status on the network, and perform diagnostic functions.
Amano recommends obtaining the maximum functionality from the
TS-3000i Web Clock (all set up done via browser) by:
 Configure the system settings including: clock name, unique clock
description, time zone, and Daylight Saving Time (DST), etc., that
are applicable to your installation (using the browser).
 Assign the NTP servers that will be used to synchronize the
TS-3000i Web clock (either internal or external).
 Enter information to generate e-mail notification.
 Enter information to generate SNMP Trap alerts for network.
 Enter FTP Server information for Backup of configuration and
transaction report files.
 Prepare schedules for: time synchronization, reports, and backup.
Note – The TS-3000i Web Clock configuration parameters,
which are retained in the clock, usually remain unchanged after
installation and setup.
About Bonjour and Zero-Configuration
Bonjour, also known as Zero-Configuration networking, enables
automatic discovery of the TS-3000i Web Clock on IP networks. Bonjour
uses industry standard IP protocols to allow devices to automatically be
discovered without the need to enter IP addresses or configure DNS
servers.
