System time - how can I ensure it is always correct?

[MPH123]

All,

We have a number of sites, where the PBX time 'drifts'.
Is there a way ensuring the system time is always correct, so we don't have to log in to correct the sys time?

Thanks in advance

Jimbo

The only way to be sure is to run a automated script that sets the time in the evening.

check in LD 2 for the drift settings on your switch. John Poole has some excellent scripts that run in procomm for this kind of stuff

It's not getting any smarter out there. You have to come to terms with stupidity, and make it work for you.

proc main
   
   
   set txpace 50	
   transmit "****^M"
   waitfor ">"
   transmit "john^M"
   
   transmit "****^M"
   waitfor ">"
   transmit "logi xxxx^M"
   pause 1 
   transmit "xxxxxx^M"
  
   call myproc 
   
   
   
endproc
proc myproc   
integer iDay, iMonth, iYear, iMin, iHour, iSec
string sSend
  
   ltimeints $LTIME iYear iMonth iDay iHour iMin iSec
   
   strfmt sSend "STAD %02d %02d %d %02d %02d %02d" iDay iMonth iYear iHour iMin iSec
   set txpace 30
   transmit "****^M"
   waitfor ">"
   
     
   transmit "ld 2^M"
   waitfor "."
   
   transmit "TTAD^M"
   waitfor "."
   transmit sSend
   transmit "^M"
   waitfor "."
   
   pause 2
   transmit "TTAD^M"
  
   pause 2
   transmit "****^M"
 
  endproc

this script sync's the time to your pc.. another way is to adjust time in ld 2, you can speed up or slow down the clock so that it tracks closer to reality
