cFP-2020 setting time/date

Hi,
I am using Labview 7.0 + Real Time Module + MAX 3.0.
I want to configure the date/time on a cFP-2020 controller, I am using my computer running the Fieldpoint Software as a Time Server but it is setting the date/time exactly one day late on the cFP-2020. how do i configure the time service running on the host computer to be set to a certain time zone?

Thanks in advanced.

Ok,

It just hit me that there was a Ni-RT.ini on the cFP-2020. After viewing the file, I found an entry called RTTarget.TimeZone under [lvrt]. 😃

Thought I would mention that In case anyone else has the same problems....

Hello,

Yes, that is a very good observation. You might also find the following useful though:

Setting the Timezone of a LabVIEW Real-Time System

This will save you from having to manually edit the ni-rt.ini file.
