    Question

     

    Where can you configure NTP server for cameras/encoders in BVMS≥11?

     

    Answer

     

    By default all cameras/encoders added to BVMS will be configured to start NTP synchronization against the Operating System of the Management server.

    Whenever a central NTP Server is available the recommendation is to synchronize all cameras against the NTP central server.

     

    In BVMS11 there is a new configuration option:

     

    • Open Configuration Client and go to Settings > Options


     BVMS ≥v11.0 & < v11.1.1:

     BVMS ≥v11.1.1:

    Central_Support_1-1666956054905.png

     

    • Add the IP Address/ hostname or URL of the NTP server to the "Time server for encoder" field:

     

     BVMS ≥v11.0 & < v11.1.1:Central_Support_1-1629447368149.png

     BVMS ≥v11.1.1:

    Central_Support_2-1666956109710.png

     

    Note:

    This configuration option does not replace the time settings configuration on the workstations and servers on operating system level! This configuration needs to be performed.
