Synchronize with an Internet time server automatically
You can 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. Then
enter the time interval for adjusting the time.
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 IP address of VioStor as the NTP server of the IP cameras.
Note: It may take several minutes to synchronize the time after you enable the NTP
server feature.
