The Allegro Network Multimeter can be configured to use a time synchronization service. NTP is supported for all variants of the Multimeter, PTP service may be used if management interface supports hardware time stamping.
In case a GPS capable PTP grandmaster card is available, GPS time synchronization is available and the antenna cable delay in nanoseconds can be configured.
To enable a time service, switch to the proper type in the dropdown box.
The time service field will show whether the selected service is running or not.
For NTP time retrieval you can specify and edit dedicated NTP servers. If you do not specify a NTP server, a set of predefined NTP servers will be taken automatically.
For PTP time retrieval, the PTP grandmaster clock identity is shown. This is usually an EUI-64 address.
The first and last set of octets of the identity represent the (EUI-48) MAC address of the grandmaster.
Following settings are possible for PTP and should match to the settings of the PTP grandmaster:
* Delay mechanism: Use end-to-end (E2E), peer-to-peer (P2P) or automatic delay measurement. In case automatic measurement is selected, E2E is used at the beginning and switched to P2P when a peer delay
request is received. Default is ‘Auto’.
* Network transport: Use UDPv4, UDPv6 or Layer 2 as network transport. Default is ‘UDPv4’.
* Domain number: The domain number of the grandmaster. This is used to define logical groups of synchronized clocks.
The GPS time retrieval option is available if a GPS capable PTP grandmaster card is installed in the Multimeter.
If no time synchronization mechanism is selected the date and time of the device can be configured manually by entering a properly formatted date and time description.
Below the time synchronization settings the time zone used by the device can be configured. The drop-down list provides a list of cities grouped by world regions to select the appropriate time zone from.
To make changes take effect, click on the Save settings button on the bottom of the page. To reload the stored settings, click on Reload settings.
