The NtpPlatformService has largely replaced this older RFC 868-based timesync module and components, since AX-3.4. For details, refer to “About the NtpPlatformService” in the Platform Guide.

 A time protocol (RFC 868) client and server. To synchronize with other servers, TimeSynClients must be added to the service. As a convenience, a disabled default client has already been added (it will need configuring). The service uses the clients to poll their configured servers, and if the service detects a drift greater than the tolerance property, the service will reset the system time. The module palette contains clients preconfigured for well known time protocol servers. The primary view of this Component is TimeSyncManager.

From the PropertySheet, you can set Enabled and Server Enabled.Enabled (to false) to disable the time sync client. Server Enabled enables the time sync server. In order to sync between stations, enable master TimeSync service to be a server, then add a TimeSyncClient in the station, configured for the server Station. The TimeSyncService is available in the timesync palette.
