When the IP Logger is not linked to an EVS video server, it has no timecode
information and you will not be able to make log entries. The NEW button in the
LIVE area is disabled.
When, for example, you want to log an event with just a laptop in a hotel room,
watching the event on a regular TV set, you can use the PC time as the timecode
for the logs.
