    6Step 6 / 12

    Start with synchronization off

    Before choosing the correction, make the NTP synchronization square empty. If it is green, tap it once to switch synchronization off. Set the correction and summer mode first, then enable synchronization.

    Step 7: Choose the time correction
    7Step 7 / 12

    Choose the time correction

    Tap one value from −5h to +5h. The selected value has a blue background. For Poland and Germany, the standard correction is +1h; the additional summer hour is selected separately below.

    Set “Summer time mode”

    The Summer time mode square toggles an additional hour. Solid green means +1 hour; an outline means no addition. Choose the state appropriate for the current local time. This screen provides a manual switch, not an automatic daylight-saving calendar.

    Leave with the back arrow and check the result

    Tap the left arrow. The settings are saved and a time update is requested. Return with the home icon and check the time and date. A working LAN or Wi-Fi client connection to the time server is required.

    Step 12: Verify the local time
    12Step 12 / 12

    Verify the local time

    If the time is incorrect, check the network connection, correction and Summer time mode. After changing the correction, turn synchronization off and on again. A green square alone does not confirm that time has been obtained from the network.

Finish and verify

Check the correct local time on the home screen. NTP requires access to a time server; connecting a phone to the controller in Access Point mode alone does not provide synchronization. A green square means the feature is enabled, not that the server has replied.
