Phone and System Administration

System Date and Time

Mitel

5000 CP Administrator Phone Guide – Issue 5.0, February 2011 Page 13

System Date and Time

You can reset the system time or date when it is necessary, for example, when the system is

defaulted or for daylight-savings time. The date and time are shown on all display phones and

Station Message Detail Recording (SMDR) reports, which record call activity data.

If enabled in DB Programming, the 5000 CP supports Automatic Daylight Savings Time (British

Summer Time, in Europe). If Network Time Protocol (NTP) is enabled for your system, the

network date and time automatically synchronize daily at 12:15 A.M. with an identified atomic

clock. Contact your system administrator for more information.

Setting the System Date and Time

You can change the date and time for an individual node or the entire network.

To set the system date and time:

1. Dial 9800 (single node) or 9810 (multi-node). The programmed date appears.

If you do not need to change the date, press # or the ACCEPT menu button to skip to

the TIME <programmed time> prompt, and then go to step 3.

2. Use the dialpad buttons to enter the month, day, and year. For example, enter 020308

for February 3, 2008. The day of the week is automatically calculated and set by the

system when the date is entered. When finished, the displays shows the current time. If

you entered the date incorrectly, INVALID DATE appears, and you are prompted to enter

a new date.

If you do not need to change the time, press # or the ACCEPT menu button twice to exit.

SYSTEM DATE AND TIME UPDATED appears.

3. Use the dialpad buttons to enter the time in hours and minutes. For example, enter 0900

for 9:00. If you entered the time incorrectly, INVALID TIME appears and you are

prompted to enter a new time.

4. If the system is set for 12-hour display format, SELECT AM OR PM (AM=1 PM=2)

appears. Press 1 (or the AM menu button) for A.M. or press 2 (or the PM menu button)

for P.M. SYSTEM DATE AND TIME UPDATED appears. (If you press any button other

than 1 or 2, INVALID TIME appears, and you are prompted to enter a new time.)

Synchronizing Network Times

You can synchronize the minutes past the hour across a network configuration without changing

the hour. This is useful when nodes are in different time zones. If a node time is off by more

than 30 minutes, synchronizing the minutes may cause the hour to change. Also, network time

is automatically synchronized every day at 12:30 A.M. (00:30), using the time setting on the

lowest node number.

To synchronize the clocks in all nodes in the network:

Dial 9811. NETWORK TIME SYNCHRONIZED appears.

NOTES

At any time, you can press

to return to the previous menu, or press the Speaker

button to exit programming and cancel any unsaved changes.

For the Japanese language (which is not supported on the 5xxx phones, enter the

date as year, month, day. For example, 080203 for February 3, 2008. Also, time

prompts are reversed, and you set AM or PM before the hour and minutes.

NOTE

If enabled, an NTP synchronization overrides the 5000 CP synchronization on any

node that has NTP enabled (see “System Date and Time” above). Contact your

system administrator for more information.
