                               NTP Auditor Program S-e-ntp-pta-01
                                     (30-day Trial Version)
		               

Installation Instructions and Summary of Operation:

   The "PresenTense Auditor" folder on this CD contains a file called ptademo.exe.  On the PC for 
   which you wish to generate Audit Trails, open the folder, double-click on the .exe file, and 
   click "Run" to install the selected program on the PC. The Setup Wizard will walk you through 
   the installation process.

   Once the PresenTense NTP Auditor program has been installed, you can open this program by 
   selecting "PresenTense NTP Auditor" from the Start/Programs menu. After opening the program, 
   you will need to configure the desired primary, secondary, and tertiary audit references.  One,
   two, or three separate audit references may be used.  The audit reference can be a Spectracom 
   time server or an Internet time server.  It is highly recommended that, if you choose to use a 
   Spectracom time server as the reference, you use a different time server as the primary time 
   source for the network.  Using a differnet NTP time server as the time source for the network 
   allows the primary time source to be "audited" as well.  If you don't have a second time 
   server, contact our Sales department at US +1.585.321.5800. To use an Intenet time server 
   as the reference source, the PC must have access to the Internet.


   1) To configure the primary, secondary, and tertiary audit references, click "Services" on 
      the bottom of the screen. Choose "Network Configuration" on the left side of the screen.  
      To configure an Internet time server as the audit reference, choose a time server from the 
      drop-down list.  To configure a Spectracom time server as the audit reference, choose 
      "Local GPS Clock" (One, Two, or Three) and then enter the IP address of the NTP time server.  

      Note: The NTP time server must be on the same subnet as the PC (or a gateway must be 
            present) to be available as an audit reference.
      
      Set the "Audit Every" drop-down box to the desired interval at which the PC will be compared
      to the audit reference.  This is the interval at which the reference will be polled for a 
      side-by-side comparison to the PC.  An unscheduled poll will occur if the time of the PC
      is manually set by a user.  The program detects that the PC time has been manually set
      and will trigger a poll to capture the amount by which the PC time has been changed.  
 
  2)  To obtain a hard-copy printout of the audit trail, connect a dot matrix printer to the
      PC's printer port.  Click on "Service" and then on "Administration." Click on "Enable Line 
      Printer" and select the LPT port number of the printer port.

  3)  To review the audit trails, click on "Audit Trails" and select Primary, Secondary, 
      or Tertiary as desired.  This will open a graph of poll comparisons.  To view past data, 
      you can select the month and day for the desired data range along the top of the page.

  4)  To review or capture the raw text file data from the audits, open Windows Explorer.  The 
      data files are stored in C:\Program files\PTAuditor.  The files are divided into three 
      folders (one for Primary, one for Secondary, and one for Tertiary) and are sub-divided by
      month and year in each of the three folders.
