Time on the PBX

[MicheleAnn716]

The time on the PBX keeps slipping 2-4 minutes. I manually change it and it lasts a few days but then the lag begins again. Is there a way to sync with an outside source? Is this possibly the beginning of a problem?

This has been covered by johnpoole many times, if you do a search you will find them.

You can look up the commands to adjust the speed of the clock, it's in load 2.

This is not a problem, just a cheap Clock from nortel.

Nortel 5.0 ( May/June) you will be able to synch your time to a NTP server. Otherwise like John said ld 2 is your answer.

here's the script again, no problem.. do a call proc from any script or make it a proc main and run it as a stand alone.

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 ">"
   
   pause 6
   
   transmit "ld 2^M"
   waitfor "."
   
   transmit "TTAD^M"
   waitfor "."
   transmit sSend
   ;transmit "^M"
   waitfor "."
   
   pause 2
   transmit "TTAD^M"
  
   pause 2
   transmit "****^M"
 
  endproc

that syncs the time to the pc your logged in on. if mine was that far off i would do the time adjust 1st. your clock running fast or slow is not going to get worse and i've never had it lead to larger problems.. and ace is right, it's a chaeap clock that nortel sells for a little over 8 grand.. buy a new pair or cpu's or a ssc card. time and date is not a process of the clock card, nortel wouldn't dare use a clock card for that.

Not quite sure how to add this script...not very advanced with the PBX. Can I schedule it as a job on from OTM?

 

[johnpoole]

no
