DATE AND TIME SETUP
You can select a choice of on-screen time and date formats, and the operating time zone for the DVR5100 (refer to Figure 36). Before you record
any video, you must set the system time, date, and time zone. You may also choose to use an external time server to synchronize the DVR5100's
time with an NTP server. Refer to Table P on page 69 for more information and default settings.
