Vijeo Designer(Basic) NTP

[StevenCho]

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to use the time .sync feature in Vijeo Designer Basic V2.1, which is newly released last month.

It seems like I can enter "pool.ntp.org" as the NTP server under [Server1], and it works when the HMI is connected to the internet.

However, if the HMI is not allowed to access the internet, I assume I’ll need to use a local NTP server, possibly running on a PC.

Could anyone let me know how to set this up with a local server?

Any help would be appreciated!

Thank you, In advance.

You can try setting up an NTP server on a PC within your local network, using an application from an NTP server provider like meinberg or its equlevant provider. HMI should be accepted its time with this method.

As mentioned by Ismailozinan, use any Windows machine on the local network where the HMI is located and enable it as an NTP server by doing the following:

• net stop w32time
• HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\W32Time\Config\AnnounceFlags = 0x05
• HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\W32Time\TimeProviders\NtpServer\Enabled = 1
• sc config w32time start= delayed-auto
• net start w32time
