The Allegro Network Multimeter can be configured to use a time synchronization service. NTP is supported for all variants of the Allegro Network Multimeter. PTP service may be used if management interface supports hardware time stamping. If a GPS-capable PTP grandmaster card is available, GPS time synchronization is available and the antenna cable delay in nanoseconds can be configured.

'''GPS''' - The GPS time retrieval option will become available when a GPS capable PTP grandmaster card is installed in the Allegro Network Multimeter.
'''GNSS/GPS''' - The GNSS/GPS time synchronization option will become available when a GNSS/GPS-capable extension card is installed in the Allegro Network Multimeter.


If no time synchronization mechanism is selected the date and time of the device can be manually configured 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.
