CI864 NTP time sync problem
Hi all
Our project demands that all controllers (5 AC800M units) should be time synched with NTP server which is located in the other facility where is also IEC104 Master which we serve data over one of the controllers and its CI864 module (IEC104). So we should sync controller with CI864 module(IEC104 Client) which is in turn connected to NTP server and IEC104 Master. The documentation states that CS Protocol type should be set to "No Synch", so it is set that way. IP adresses of the NTP servers are checked and good. As you assume the time syncing is not working, we checked that by manually setting the local time (SetDT) few seconds in the past and hoped that the controller would sync itself, but it didn't. The configuration of the Controller, CI864, IEC Partner and IEC station are attached.

There is an issue with debbuging since there is no way that I know to see if the NTP sync part fails or Controller Sync part fails.
Also, there is a question how to sync the other controller to this one when the CS Protocol type is set to "No Synch" but that is something not that relevant in this moment and there is probbly many methods to do that.
Thanks for any advice in advance.
