NTP servers can either be provided as part of the DHCP
protocol, or specified via the NTP server address
configuration item.
Item ID
NTP_ENABLED
Available values/format
• Enabled (default)
[true]
The instrument enables the NTP and prevents the
time from being set by POCT1-A.
• Disabled
[false]
The instrument deactivates the NTP.
Dependencies
• If the Network Time Protocol (NTP) configuration
is enabled, the NTP server address is required.
• The time zone must be configured in the Instrument
time zone configuration item.
Configuration
You configure the Network Time Protocol (NTP)
configuration item using the following:
• Data management system (e.g., cobas
®
infinity POC)
• Barcode (generated via cobas
®
infinity edge)
NTP server address
This configuration item specifies the address of the NTP
server.
The NTP server can either have a ’machine name’, such
as "ntp.hospital.com", or a "textual representation" of its
IP address. If a literal IP address is supplied, only the
validity of the address format is checked.
For a host specified as an IPv6 address, either the form
defined in RFC 2732, or the literal IPv6 address format
defined in RFC 2373 are acceptable. IPv6 scoped
addresses are also supported.
