The system clock can be synchronized with a network NTP server using the NTP (Network Time Protocol) settings at the operating system level.
To configure this function, proceed as follows (using Windows 10 as an example):
-
Open the “Run” dialog box in Windows using the keyboard shortcut <Windows> + <R>.
-
Enter “control” in the input field and confirm with Return or <OK>.
-
In the Control Panel, open the settings for Clock and Region.
-
Select Date and Time.
-
Switch to the Internet Time tab and open the settings by clicking <Change settings...>.
-
Enable time synchronization and specify an accessible NTP server.
-
You can specify the NTP server either via a host name or an IP address.
