the system needs to be able to completely recover from a temporary
power loss, or similar, without human intervention.
c.
A system is used for simulation or testing purposes, and UTC traceability is not
required.
The Accuracy of the Battery Backed Time …
… depends on the accuracy of the hand-set time if the time is set manually in an
autonomous system. In a non-autonomous system (i.e, when using external reference
(s)) VelaSync's System Clock will regularly update the battery-backed time.
Another factor impacting the accuracy of the battery- backed time is how long a
VelaSync unit is powered off: Any significant amount of time will cause the battery-
backed RTC to drift, i.e. the battery-backed time will become increasingly inaccurate.
The battery used for the RTC is designed to last for the lifetime of the product.
Distributing battery-backed time over NTP
When distributing a hand-set, battery backed time via NTP, please set the time rel-
atively close to UTC, so as to prevent NTP synchronization problems when transitioning
from the hand-set time to a UTC-based external input reference. See also
To use the battery-backed time as the synchronized time at start-up:
1.
Navigate to
MANAGEMENT > OTHER: Time Management
.
2.
In the
System Time
panel click the GEAR icon.
3.
The
Edit System Time
window will display. Select the checkbox
Synchronize to
Battery Backed Time on Startup
