5000 CP Administrator Phone Guide – Issue 3.2, September 2009 Page 9
System Date and Time
You can reset the system time or date when it is necessary, for example, when the system is
defaulted or for daylight-savings time. The date and time are shown on all display phones and
Station Message Detail Recording (SMDR) reports, which record call activity data.
If enabled in DB Programming, the 5000 CP system supports Automatic Daylight Savings Time
(British Summer Time, in Europe). If Network Time Protocol (NTP) is enabled for your system,
the network date and time automatically synchronize daily at 12:15 A.M. with an identified
atomic clock. Contact your system administrator for more information.
Setting the System Date and Time
You can change the date and time for an individual node or the entire network.
To set the system date and time:
1. Dial 9800 (single node) or 9810 (multi-node). The programmed date appears.
If you do not need to change the date, press # or the ACCEPT menu button to skip to
the TIME <programmed time> prompt, and then go to step 3.
2. Use the dialpad buttons to enter the month, day, and year. For example, enter 020308
for February 3, 2008. The day of the week is automatically calculated and set by the
system when the date is entered. When finished, the displays shows the current time. If
you entered the date incorrectly, INVALID DATE appears, and you are prompted to enter
a new date.
If you do not need to change the time, press # or the ACCEPT menu button twice to exit.
SYSTEM DATE AND TIME UPDATED appears.
3. Use the dialpad buttons to enter the time in hours and minutes. For example, enter 0900
for 9:00. If you entered the time incorrectly, INVALID TIME appears and you are
prompted to enter a new time.
4. If the system is set for 12-hour display format, SELECT AM OR PM (AM=1 PM=2)
appears. Press 1 (or the AM menu button) for A.M. or press 2 (or the PM menu button)
for P.M. SYSTEM DATE AND TIME UPDATED appears. (If you press any button other
than 1 or 2, INVALID TIME appears, and you are prompted to enter a new time.)
NOTES
At any time, you can press
*
to return to the previous menu, or press the Speaker
button to exit programming and cancel any unsaved changes.
The Japanese language is not supported on Mitel 5000-series phones.
For the Japanese language, enter the date as year, month, day. For example,
080203 for February 3, 2008. Also, time prompts are reversed, and you set AM or
PM before the hour and minutes.
