M2317 phone display 1

The time set on the display is not
correct. Is the time corrected on one of the
soft keys? M2317 is limited in user instructions.

As I remember, the 2317 gets its time from the PBX just like any other phone, but the iteration between checks is not every second. I remember the night of Y2K watching the 2317 in our Data Center turn to Dec 32, 1999 12:00. I was about to panic when it refreshed to the right date. (Was not expecting that!!!) Unplug the phone power supply and see if it updates with the right time.

I do not know if the phone set time updates are configurable, but I do know the more stations you have, the longer it takes for them all to get an updated time stamp.

Hope this helps,

Scott M.

That would definitely get my heart jumping.

Thanks for the help! Unplugging the power supply did
update the time on M2317. An oversight on my part not
trying that option, and I have added a few more stations
to take note of slower updated time.

dec 32, that's a classic// best bet, don't put a lot of money into 2317's, they were a weak issue to start with, 20 years ago.. jmo

At least Nortellian got a star for quoting me correctly. John is so right, I no longer have any 2317's at my sites. I used to have one in most phone rooms. Never really understood why???

they looked like a great set, they just loved to reboot, change lang and time freeze... not a great feature set
