NTP Server
#1
Hi,

I have a project that will be using multiple LM's. Is it possible to select 1 LM as the time master and configure it as a NTP Server to server the other LM's? The LM's will be on an isolated network with no internet access. I had a look at the settings but was not sure if this is possible.

The Local server status is the NTP server you asking for. Enable it and in the other LMs put IP of the one with server enabled.

Keep in mind that you still need an accurate clock source. One solution is a GPS receiver with USB or RS232 interface if it's possible to get GPS coverage in your installation.

Thanks the the replies, ill give the local server status a try, and look at installing a device to provide accurate time to the master LM

Hallo,
It's possible create a script for read the time from a ntp server  when "wiser" it's restarted?

You don’t need a script for that, when the NTP is enabled under the system settings it should sync time automatically, you need to be sure the controller has access to the internet and port 123 is not blocked by a firewall.
