Screen 7: Time Zone

The console is pre-programmed with a combination of US time zones and the names of major cities representing time zones around the world. You can also configure your time zone using the Universal Time Coordinate (UTC) offset.

	Screen 7: Time Zone
Note:	UTC offset measures the difference between the time in any time zone and a stan-
	dard time, set by convention as the time at the Royal Observatory in Greenwich,
	England. Hayward, California, the home of Davis Instruments, observes Pacific Stan-
	dard Time. The UTC offset for Pacific Standard Time is -8:00, or eight hours behind
	Universal Time (UTC). When it’s 7:00 pm (1900 hours) UTC, it’s 19 - 8 = 1100 hours,
	or 11:00 am in Hayward in winter. When daylight saving time is observed, an hour is
	added to the offset time automatically. Use this function in correlation with Screen 8,
	Daylight Saving Settings.
