A Multi SA can synchronize the clock of a Rapid Eye Multi-Media unit using a PC's clock as
reference. This is more useful for units connected only by dial-up, but can also be used for
units on a LAN.
Check/set the clock on an operator's PC before setting a unit clock manually.
To adjust the PC time, date and time zone:

1. Click Start Control Panel
2. Check the accuracy of the time and the time zone on the PC and adjust it as needed.
1. Using the View application, select a Multi-Media unit whose clock needs to be set.
2. Start a
Maintenance Session.
3. Click the Time tab. If Manual is not selected, click it. The Time tab appears as in
Figure 4-4.
4. Click Set Multi-Media unit's clock.
