Additional Powermonitor
3000 Ethernet Features

The Powermonitor 3000 system also supports a variety of other
Ethernet features.

SNTP Client

The DC implements a Simple Network Time Protocol client in order to
provide a means for the Powermonitor 3000 system to receive
periodic updates to its system clock.

Configuration Parameters

Before the SNTP Client can be initialized or run, it requires the
following three configuration parameters which are provided by the
host PM 3000 during initialization:

TIP

In order for the SNTP client to operate, there must be
access to an SNTP server.

Table F.31 SNTP Client Configuration Parameters

Name

Data Type

SNTP Server Address

UDINT

Interval

UINT

Time Zone Adjustment

INT

TIP

These configuration parameters are only passed to
the DC by the PM 3000 during initialization.
Consequently, changes to these parameters within
the PM 3000 will not take effect within the DC until
the next time it is reset.
