Activating/deactivating the automatic version check

When the version check is activated, the phone checks on a daily basis whether the Sie-

mens configuration server is carrying a new version of the phone firmware or of the file

with the general settings for your VoIP provider.
If a new version is available, a notification is sent to the handset and the message key

flashes. You can then carry out an automatic update of the firmware (page 118) or of the

VoIP provider settings (page 120).

Copy date and time from time server

The date and time are shown in the idle display of registered handsets. They are important,

for example, for stating the correct time in the calls list and for the "alarm clock" function.
There are two methods for updating the time and date on your base station: manually with

one of the registered handsets (page 13) or automatically by synchronisation with a time

server on the Internet.
Activate/deactivate synchronisation with a time server as follows:

¤

Open the following Web page:

¢

Miscellaneous

.

¤

In the

Automatic adjustment of System Time with Time Server

field select

Yes

to activate syn-

chronisation between base station and a time server. If you select

No

the base station

will not adopt time settings from a time server. In this case you should set the time and

date manually using a handset.

¤

The

Last synchronisation with time server

field shows the last time when the base station

compared time and date settings with a time server.

¤

In the

Time Server

field, enter the Internet address or name of the time server from which

the base station should adopt its time and date settings. The time server

"europe.pool.ntp.org" is set as default on the base station. You can overwrite the set-

ting.

¤

From the

Country

list, select the country in which your base station is being operated.

¤

The

Time Zone

field shows the valid time zone for the

Country

. It shows the deviation

between local time (not summer time) and Greenwich Mean Time (GMT).
If a country is divided into various time zones, they will all appear in the list. Select the

appropriate

Time Zone

for the base station from the list.

¤

The

Automatically adjust clock to summer-time changes

field will be displayed if your time

zone differentiates between summer time and winter time.
Activate

On

if you want the time to change automatically to summer time or winter time

when summer time begins and ends respectively.
Activate

Off

if you do not want to change to summer time.
