How to set the date and time
To access a Clock Settings:
1. Double-click the HP Media Vault icon on your desktop.
2. Click Customize your HP Media Vault’s setting.
3. If the Welcome Screen appears, click Configure Device.
4. Click the System Settings tab.
5. Click Clock Settings.
You can make one or more date and time changes on the Clock Settings screen.
Synchronizing the date and time
If you have Internet access on your network, the HP Media vault automatically synchronizes its date and time
with an Internet public Network Time Protocol (NTP) server. This synchronization feature called Automatically
Set Clock from Internet
is set at the factory. The checkbox for this feature is located in the
upper-left corner of the screen.
By default, the media vault connects to the first available NTP Server. Under normal circumstances, you should
not have to modify the addresses of the three pre-set NTP Servers.
If you want to set the clock manually, you should clear Automatically Set Clock from Internet (NTP)
Server check box. If you set the clock manually without clearing this feature, the next time the media vault
checks its time against the NTP sever, the NTP Server will change your manual settings.
Setting the clock manually
1. Enter the appropriate Year, Month, and Day.
2. Enter the Hours, Minutes, and Seconds.
3. If you have set the Time Display Format to use a 12 Hour Clock, click either AM or PM. (See the
item in Other clock settings below.)
4. Click Set Clock Manually.
Other clock settings
If you do not want your media vault to automatically adjust for Daylight Saving Time, click the Automatically
Adjust Clock for Daylight Savings Time checkbox to clear it. If you live in a daylight-savings time zone,
and keep this box selected, your media vault will automatically update its clock for the Spring and Autumn time
changes.
