IGURE 4-9: SNTP CONFIGURATION PAGE

NOTE Specifying SNTP or NTP servers by hostname requires that the instrument be set to DNS, either

by DHCP or Static IP.

If a PTP master or an SNTP server is not available, time can be configured manually by the user

by selecting Manual in the Time Source drop menu, clicking the Set Time checkbox, and then

entering the time appropriately. Once the time information has been entered, click the Submit

button. An instrument reboot is then required to activate the new selection.

LXI SYNCHRONIZATION

The LXI Synchronization status page provides information about the EX7000s synchronization

characteristics. Note that PTP must be selected in the Time Configuration web page in order for

this page to be populated as see in Figure 4-10.

For more information, please refer to LXI Standard Revision 1.2, Section 9, Rule 9.6. and

IEEE 1588-2002, Precision Clock Synchronization Protocol for Networked Measurement and

Control Systems.
