Date and Time Configuration Page

Use Time Settings to view and set time settings such as the date, current time, time zone, and daylight savings time on your LabVIEW Real-Time target. You can also use this page to set time synchronization sources for your system.

Note  You can restrict who has access to view the settings on this page using the GetSystemConfiguration permission on the Security Configuration page.

Setting Date and Time

Use the Date and Time to set the date and time for your LabVIEW Real-Time target.

Setting Time Synchronization

Use the Time Synchronization section to enable a time synchronization source for your device, if your device or system supports this feature. Refer to your system's documentation for more information.

Note Note  You can reorder the sources using the arrow buttons on each time sync source. However, reordering the sources changes their priority. If you set up sources in the following order–Software 1588, SNTP, RTC–the controller tries to synchronize the clock using Software 1588 first. If Software 1588 fails, the controller moves to SNTP and finally to RTC.

Time synchronization sources supported by NI products include the following:
