3.2.5.2 Date and Time


2N® Indoor Talk is equipped with a real time clock without backup for power outages. Select Use time from Internet to synchronize 2N® Indoor Talk time with the internet time or click Synchronize with browser to synchronize the intercom time with your current PC time. 

Note

  • A correct date/time value is unnecessary for the basic function of 2N® Indoor Talk. The current date and time are necessary for a correct display of time of events in various lists (Syslog, tapped card records, device log downloaded via HTTP API, etc.)

To maximize the accuracy and reliability, we recommend that you always enable the Use time from Internet function. The device time error can be up to ±2 minutes per month under normal operation conditions.
