Date/Time
Under "Date/Time", you can set the time zone, date and time. Alternatively, you can specify an NTP time
server for time synchronization.
If you click on "Use local time", the time of IDS NXT is synchronized with the PC time. The
time zone is not set, so that the device time differs from the PC time if different time zones
are set on the PC and the device.
