Date and Time Settings
In order to ensure that you do not encounter time related synchronization problems with Sportzware Central and Sportzware Membership (SWM), it is important to ensure that your computer has the correct date and time settings.
SWC uses the date and time settings from your computer to generate accurate time stamps for the various actions and tasks it performs. In particular it uses these settings for recording synchronization times.
If your date and time setting are incorrect then you may experience the following problems:
- SWC backup files will have an inaccurate date which may lead to an incorrect history of your association’s data.
- Errors may occur during synchronisation indicating that your computer time does not match the time on the server.
In order to check your time and date settings you can perform the following:
- From the desktop select the Start menu
- From the start menu enter the Control Panel
- Double click on the Date and Time icon
- Select the correct Month, Year and Day from the date box
- Set the correct time
NOTE: Make sure that the time is set in accordance with AM or PM as this will also affect the computers time stamps.
- Select the correct Time Zone from the drop down list
- If you have a broadband connection (Cable or ADSL) we strongly recommend that you synchronise your time with an Internet time server. This is set-up by default in most Windows XP installations.
Eg. Time.windows.com will correct your time settings if they are inconsistent with the server’s.
