System Settings - Reporting
RMS can provide detailed reporting on room device and parameter changes based on a tracked history. Specify
reporting preferences in the Reporting Options screen (FIG. 37).
Place a check next to Enable Reporting to allow for this function.
You must also specify the number of days for RMS to track.
The default is 90 days.
Click Next to continue.
System Settings - Time Sync
RMS can maintain time and date synchronization between the RMS server and the remote NetLinx systems.
Set synchronization preferences in the Time Synchronization screen (FIG. 38).
Synchronize NetLinx System Time/Date: if this option is enabled, the RMS server synchronizes
the time and date on NetLinx systems upon connection and subsequently once each evening.
This option is recommended to maintain a consistent time and date throughout the system.
Synchronize Server Time/Date: if this option is enabled, the RMS server connects to an Internet
time synchronization server once per evening and synchronizes the server local time and date.
This option is recommended only if the server is not already synchronized by other means such as a
network time synchronization program.
FIG. 37 RMS Configuration Wizard - Reporting Options
The larger the number of days, the greater the number of records the database
needs to store and the longer report queries take to run.
