System
This section allows you to manage DAP-1350's configuration settings, reboot DAP-1350, and restore DAP-1350 to the factory default settings. Restoring the unit to the factory default settings will erase all settings, including any rules that you've created.
Save Settings To Local Hard Drive - This option allows you to save DAP-1350's configuration to a file on your computer. Be sure to save the configuration before performing a firmware upgrade.
Load Settings From Local Hard Drive - Use this option to restore previously saved DAP-1350 configuration settings.
Restore To Factory Default Settings -
Reboot The Device - This restarts DAP-1350. Useful for restarting when you are not near the device.

Firmware Update You can upgrade the firmware of the device using this tool. Make sure that the firmware you want to use is saved on the local hard drive of the computer. Click on Browse to search the local hard drive for the firmware to be used for the update. Upgrading the firmware will not change any of your system settings but it is recommended that you save your system settings before doing a firmware upgrade.

Time
The Time Configuration option allows you to configure, update, and maintain the correct time on DAP-1350's internal system clock. From this section you can set the time zone that you are in and set the Time Server. Daylight saving can also be configured to automatically adjust the time when needed.
Time Configuration
Current Router Time - Displays the time currently maintained by DAP-1350. If this is not correct, use the following options to configure the time correctly.
Time Zone - Select your local time zone from pull down menu.
Enable Daylight Saving - Check this option if your location observes daylight saving time.
DST Start and DST End - Select the starting and ending times for the change to and from daylight saving time. For example, suppose for DST Start you select Month="Oct", Week="3rd", Day="Sun" and Time="2am". This is the same as saying: "Daylight saving starts on the third Sunday of October at 2:00 AM."
Automatic Time Configuration
Enable NTP Server - Select this option if you want to synchronize DAP-1350's clock to a Network Time Server over the Internet. If you are using schedules or logs, this is the best way to ensure that the schedules and logs are kept accurate. Note that, even when NTP Server is enabled, you must still choose a time zone and set the daylight saving parameters.
NTP Server Used - Select a Network Time Server for synchronization. You can type in the address of a time server or select one from the list. If you have trouble using one server, select another.
Set the Date and Time Manually - If you do not have the NTP Server option in effect, you can either manually set the time for DAP-1350 here, or you can click the Copy Your Computer's Time Settings button to copy the time from the computer you are using. (Make sure that computer's time is set correctly.) If DAP-1350 loses power for any reason, it cannot keep its clock running, and will not have the correct time when it is started again. To maintain correct time for schedules and logs, either you must enter the correct time after you restart DAP-1350, or you must enable the NTP Server option.
