Time Synchronization Issues

time synchronization is required for precise time resolution for time stamping collected measurements also, belden horizon data operations uses the current time for license activation therefore, if the time is substantially off, the trial license may be considered invalid and cause the trial to end prematurely ntp (network time protocol) servers offer the easiest, most reliable, and accurate time synchronization method important if you are installing belden horizon data operations adjust the system clock through the bios before installing belden horizon data operations otherwise the 15 day trial period may be rejected and invalidated by the license server in the event that your license becomes invalidated, contact your belden representative see docid\ w8whr1qjn brsj2agrdgh synchronize using public ntp servers belden horizon data operations comes pre configured with servers in the public ntp pool this requires internet access see https //www pool ntp org/en/ to learn more if belden horizon data operations is in an environment without internet access or if you want to specify your own ntp servers, you can do it using the web ui or the terminal user interface (tui), as shown below see the configure time section in docid\ tdhqtwqbqzobeduatvehz configure ntp time servers using the tui refer to the configure time section see docid\ tdhqtwqbqzobeduatvehz configure ntp time servers through the web interface see the ntp servers section in docid\ sizrzwiblwcq5pnuzuarr synchronize using a local ntp server see docid\ shrspbyqgq6dldxgdmv5b
