Setting the Date and Time

It is very important if you’re planning on using the video search function that the

date and time are correctly set. This is also the case if you want to be able to use the

footage from your DVR in a court of law or similar legal proceeding.

Date: The date, in the format as chosen in the Date Format drop-down

menu.

Date Format: The format of the date (eg. DD/MM/YYYY or MM/DD/YYYY and so

on).

Time: This can be edited in the same way as the Date, or set to update

automatically.

Time Format: How the time will be displayed, either as 12-hour (AM or PM) or 24-

hour time.

NTP SETTING: Network Time Protocol. If you’ve got the DVR connected to the

Internet, you can have it automatically sync time with an online

server.

Time Zone: Particularly important if you’ve enabled NTP - set this to the time

zone where you happen to be. For example, people in eastern

Australia (Canberra, Sydney and Melbourne) choose GMT+10:00,

whilst the Eastern Time zone in the USA and Canada is GMT-05:00.

(GMT stands for Greenwich Mean Time - it’s the baseline that keeps

all the dierent time zones in sync.)

IMPORTANT: If you change your Time Zone setting, click APPLY before you

click UPDATE.
