time sync between multiple units

is there any way to force the time of multiple units on the same network to sync?

I have an two RPUs and and Ion, and they all have different times (clock) set- date matches between all the desks though.

can one of the desks act as an external time server?

    Set up one of the devices as an NTP server somewhere and have all the units act as an NTP client for that device.  Page 300 of the Ion 1.7 manual explains how.

    Your router may be capable of serving as an NTP device too. If it has access to the internet, it can sync with world-wide NTP servers. Otherwise, it's time will drift depending on it's internal clock.
