It is strongly recommended that IP Office systems obtain their time and date automatically from an internet based time server. However, if configured otherwise, the following methods can be used to change the current system time and date.
Linux-based IP Office Systems
For a Linux-based IP Office system, the system date and time can be set through the server’s Platform View menus using the Settings | System | Data and Time settings.
IP500 V2 Systems
For IP500 V2 systems set to no time server source, date and time changes can be done though the phone menus of a user who has been give System Phone Rights (see System Phone Features). The user's Login Code is used to restrict access to the time and date settings menu on the phone.
How the user accesses the date/time settings depends on the type of phone:
Phone type
Details
1400, 1600, 9400, 9500, 9600, and J100 Series
For a user with System Phone Rights, on these phones the user can set the system time and date by selecting Features | Phone User | System Administration.
This does not include the 1403, 1603 and J129 phones.
If the system has been configured with a time server, this option can still used to display time and date information but cannot be used to change it.
