For IP Office systems without access to a time server, a number of methods to manually set the system time exist. These are available in the IP Office 4.1+. The following method is only supported on these phones: 2410, 2420, 4412, 4424, 4612, 4624, 4610, 4620, 4621, 5410, 5420, 5610, 5620, 5621, 6412, 6424. It is supported on any analog, T3, T3 IP or wireless (IP DECT, 3600, 3700 Series) phones.
