Synchronizing Camera Clocks

Synchronize the clocks on two cameras via a network. The clock on one camera (the “remote camera”) is set to the time on the other (the “master camera”). The changes apply to all options in the setup menu [Time zone and date] display.

  • The cameras can connect via Ethernet or by WT-6 wireless transmitters attached to both cameras.

  1. Select [Enable] for [Wired LAN/WT] > [Wired LAN/WT functions] in the setup menu.

    Repeat this step for the second camera.

  2. On the master camera, select [Network settings] > [Synchronize date and time], then highlight [Make this camera the master] and press 2.

    • Date synchronization mode will be enabled.

    • Master camera clock settings will be displayed.

  3. On the remote camera, select [Network settings] > [Synchronize date and time], then highlight [Make this camera a remote] and press 2.

    • Date synchronization mode will be enabled.

    • Remote camera clock settings will be displayed.

  4. Press J on the remote camera.

    • The remote camera clock will be synchronized with the clock on the master camera via the network.

    • If the operation succeeds, the remote camera will display a message and exit to [Network settings].

    • Repeat Steps 3–4 to synchronize the clocks on additional cameras.

  5. Press J on the master camera.

    Date synchronization mode will end and [Network settings] options will be displayed.
