Setting the CTPOS Clock (CTP Menu)
Starting with CTPOS 6.7, you can change the time zone on the basis of your location. It is recommended that you configure the same time zone for both CTPView server and CTPOS to enable the system to correctly display the statistics graphs. Conflicting time zones causes the plot values to be offset from their correct positions on the time axis.
Only a system administrator can change the time zone of the system.
To change the time zone from CTP Menu:
- From the Main Menu, select 5) Node Operations > 1) Change Node Date/Time/TimeZone > .
- Select 1) Set time-zone.
