The Date & Time in the System Settings synchronizes with the Time Setting in offline mode. We recommend adjusting the time setting in offline mode after the project file is transferred.
M.2.2 Adjusting the clock on the Display
The [Timezone] in the [System Settings] - [Date and Time] is ignored.
The [DNS Settings] in the [System Settings] - [Ethernet] are ignored.
When the [System Settings] - [Ethernet] - [IP Mode] is set to [Auto], the display unit automatically obtains an IP address when connected to the network but cannot resolve names because the [DNS Settings] are ignored. When you specify the display unit from the Transfer Tool or other means, specify the IP address displayed in [System Settings] - [Information].
We recommend using the Port Control feature in GP-Pro EX to control communication and prevent unauthorized access.
