5.2.7 Time setup
Each HYDRA module has an internal clock and thus for each HYDRA module the time can be set. Furthermore the
H
YDRA modules can be synchronized with each other via an NTP synchronization mechanism. Finally a time zone
can be specified. With the Setup time dialog box these configurations can be set. It is opened with the com-
mand Setup time.

Setup time dialog
Time Setup – Wall
On the Time setup tab there is first the principle choice between wall and module configuration mode. Selecting
the Wall mode enables to choose one time configuration for the whole wall. If the NTP Synchronization Button
is not selected, only the manual configuration is available. With the NTP Synchronization Button selected the
modes NTP, NTP Date and LTCVITC are available. With the modes NTP and LTCVITC the modules are furthermore
also internally synchronized with each other via NTP. These two modes or selecting NTP Date for all modules
enables to have for all H
YDRA modules always the same time.
With the manual configuration the H
YDRA modules are only synchronized each time the time configuration is
done, but afterwards the individual clocks might diverge with growing time.
