Date & Time

Set the date, time, and time zone. If the settings are incorrect, the following problems

may occur:

Incorrect time display on the video files.

Incorrect time display on the event logs.

Synchronize with an Internet time server automatically

Enable this option to update the date and time of the NVR automatically with an NTP

(Network Time Protocol) server. Enter the IP address or the domain name of the NTP

server, for example, time.nist.gov or time.windows.com. You can also select when to

synchronize the date and time of the NVR with an NTP server.

The NVR can be configured as the NTP server for the IP cameras or other servers. To

ensure the date and time of the IP cameras are synchronized with the NVR, enter the NVR

IP as the NTP server of the IP cameras. To set the server time the same as the computer

time, select ‘Set the server time the same as the computer time’.

Note: It may take several minutes to synchronize the time after enabling the NTP server

feature.
