Tablet Setup With UTC Time And Network Time Protocol
[ Friday May 17th 2019 at 8:49 pm ]

I now have setup a tablet as a UTC clock. I am very pleased with this. The easy of access for UTC time will help me as a program my web site. By default I use UTC date - time stamps.

The setup was easy to do:

  • I purchased an unbranded tablet with the open source Android operating system, a holder and tempered screen protector
  • The next step I did was installing AVG anti virus software and CCleaner to protect the operating system. I installed these from the Google Play Store.
  • The app I have selected is AtomicClock. This is also installed from the Google Play Store. I have paid for the ad-free version. This app uses network time protocol to remain accurate. I have set the same network time protocol server as my servers use for continuity.

I think this will be an asset in my program and troubleshooting.
