Time synchronization is to synchronize the time of terminal players. Users can choose NTP or Lora RF for time synchronization according to actual condition.

        • NTP: Synchronize the time of terminal players according to NTP server. No hardware is needed. But the accuracy of time synchronization depends on the Internet speed and data will be needed if you use 4G network for time synchronization.
        • LoraRF: Used by Taurus. It is required to set master and slave devices. The time of slave device is synchronized with the master device (reference device) via Lora networkRF signal. According to actual needs, the time of master device can be synchronized via NTP server. It is needed to buy Lora RF devices. This is suitable for scenarios highly demanding time synchronization. No data will be needed. But the signal reception depends on environment and is limited by distance.

titleCreating Time Synchronous Tasks

Step 1     Choose Players Management Time Synchronization.

Step 2     (Optional) Click Click NTP server configuration to tab page to configure the information of NTP server and then click Save&Close.

The attributes of public servers (China, America) cannot be modified. The attributes including basic info and workgroup of NTP servers added by the user can be modified.

Step 3     On the     Click Time Synchronization tab page, and click New.

Step 4     Enter a name for the task, choose time synchronization mode and then click Next.

          • NTP: Choose NTP server and click OK.
          • LORARF: Choose a reference device for time synchronization and click OK. Lora RF mode is only valid for asynchronous players.

titleModifying Time Synchronization Task Attributes

Step 1     Choose Players Management Time Synchronization.

Step 2     Select a time synchronization task and click Attribute, or click a task name. Time synchronization task attributes are explained in Table 3-13.

Table 3-13  Time synchronization task attributes

Tab Name

Description

Basic Info

Set the name and description of the time synchronization task.

Workgroups

Set the workgroup the time synchronization task belongs to.

Configure

  • NTP: Choose NTP server.
  • LoraRF: Choose a reference device for time synchronization. If the time of the reference device is synchronized via NTP server, set NTP to Yes and choose NTP server.

Players

Add or delete the players contained in the time synchronization task.

Step 3     After the attributes are edited, click Save or Save&Close.
