Date, Time and Frame Count Configuration Web Page
The Date, Time and Frame Count web page (Figure 47) supports Simple
Network Time Protocol (SNTP), permits manually setting the SCB’s date,
and allows activation of the SCB’s Frame Count Server. These settings
control synchronization of the SCB with other devices on the network. For
example, both SCBs in a redundant pair need to use the same time reference
to ensure proper data sharing during system operation. The recommended
practice is to use both VITC and SNTP on all the SCBs, which will ensure
consistent times and dates for the entire Encore system.

Note The Frame Count Server feature, introduced with Encore Release 1.7.3, was
formerly located on the SCB’s Application Configuration web page and was
previously labeled Reference Count Server.
