Step 2: This tab allows you to set the date and time settings for your device. In the tab you will also notice a selection to sync your device with an NTP (Network Time Protocol) server.

Step 3: Once the "Sync with NTP Server" option is disabled, you can now properly sync your device to your local network/PC. To sync your device to the current time, please press the "PC Sync" button to set the current time and date for your device.
Once this option is selected your date and time will be set for your device. Please press "Save" to save and apply your settings to your device.
