Time sync

There is one thing bugging me at the moment - what time server does the eDGe sync with? I find the eDGe is gaining about 70 seconds a week even with the date and time set to automatic.

My computers sync with the time server on our server every 12 hours but I don't see the eDGe doing so. Is there a way to make it happen either to a NIST server or our local server, which is checked against a NIST server every 6 hours?

The eDGe has actually never time synced. To sync up you have to simply launch the Registration Wizard which syncs the time right at the start and after which you can cancel the wizard.

Tech Support has been aware of this issue since at least last Spring, if not earlier.

That answers that then. Thanks Boris.

Now I'll have to work out a way of doing so just to keep files in order.

If you launch the Registration Wizard first thing in the morning, and then around supper time, you'll be sync'd as well as if it were automatic.
