Fieldbus Gateway Manager contains facilities to allow you to synchronize the time and date
within the Gateway to a variety of sources. The time manager is also capable of maintaining
information about the Gateway’s current time-zone, and whether daylight saving time is
currently enabled. In fact, having accurate time-zone information available is a vital to proper
synchronization, as the various synchronization methods are all designed to work with
Universal Coordinated Time, also known as UTC or Greenwich Mean Time. This protocol
