Please note: If the date and time are updated by a time server that automatically
switches between summer time and standard time, you must always activate Off here.

Click Set to save the settings in your phone.
Once you have activated synchronisation, the time and date will be compared with a time
server as soon as an Internet connection is established.
Synchronisation will usually occur once a day (at night) if synchronisation is activated. Any
additional synchronisation will take place only after each new system start of the base sta-
tion (e.g. after a firmware update or a power cut).
If you register a new handset on your base station it will assume the time and date of the
base station without any additional synchronisation with the time server.
Date and time settings are transferred to every handset after synchronisation.
Querying the phone status
General information about your phone is displayed.

In the menu list, click the Status tab.
The following information is displayed:
IP Configuration
IP address
The phone's current IP address within the local network. For assigning the IP address,
see page 131.
MAC address
The phone's device address.
Software
Firmware version
Version of the firmware currently downloaded. You can download updates of the

Please note:
– The default time server "europe.pool.ntp.org" will remain stored in the base station even if you
overwrite it. If you delete your time server from the Time Server field and synchronisation is still
activated, the base station will return to synchronisation with the default time server. However, it
will no longer appear in the Time Server field.
– The base station will return to synchronisation with the default time server if you have entered
your own time server in the Time Server field and the base station is unable to synchronise time
and date for ten consecutive attempts.
– If you have deactivated synchronisation with a time server, and if the date and time are not set on
any handset, then the base station will attempt to reference date and time settings from the CLIP
information of an incoming call.
