For the cameras, DC-F1211A, DC-F1211, DC-F1111, DC-E1112WR en DC-E1212WR, the time setting will be changed randomly when the cameras reboot because their RTC(Real Time Clock) do not have batteries. For this reason, “Time Sync“ setting is necessary to automatic synchronize the time after reboot.

On DirectIP mode, the cameras do synchronize the time automatically without “Time Sync” setting because DirectIP protocol is auto-configuration oriented mode, but for the cameras running on IDIS protocol mode, the cameras do not time-synchronization unless a user manually configure the time on the menu, “Time Sync. This configuration can be set on remote setup of a camera.
