Is there a way to autoconfigure (set up) date and time on multiple Chi.Bio connected to a PC?
The obvious way would to use ntpdate on the Chi.Bio but it seems that it is difficult (on Windows 10 at least) to share the internet connection of the PC with multiple beagle boards simultaneously.
Anyway: the question is -> is there a way to force the beagle boards to update the time and date at boot automatically or is the only way to set the date and time manually after boot?
I don’t know, I have not tried!
Personally, I practically never turn the control computers off (I’ve left them on for six months at a time), which is made easier by attaching a 5V power supply directly to them (so they dont need to be plugged into a PC at all times).
If you do figure out some way to do this I’d love to know! We could use a different control computer in the future with inbuilt WiFi, which could solve the issue.
