Daylight saving
Path: Administration>General>Date & Time>daylight saving
Enable traditional United States Daylight Saving Time (DST), or enable and configure a customized daylight saving time to match how Daylight Saving Time is implemented in your local area. DST is disabled by default.
When customizing Daylight Saving Time (DST):
•If the local DST always starts or ends on the fourth occurrence of a specific weekday of a month (e.g, the fourth Sunday), choose Fourth/Last. If a fifth Sunday occurs in that month in a subsequent year, the time setting still changes on the fourth Sunday.
•If the local DST always starts or ends on the last occurrence of a specific weekday of a month, whether it is the fourth or the fifth occurrence, choose Fifth/Last.
Format
Path: Administration>General>Date & Time>date format
Select the numerical format in which to display all dates in this user interface. In the selections, each letter m (for month), d (for day), and y (for year) represents one digit.
Use an .ini File
Path: Administration>General>User Config File
Use the settings from one Management Card to configure another. Retrieve the config.ini file from the configured Management Card, customize that file (e.g., to change the IP address), and upload the customized file to the new Management Card. The file name can be up to 64 characters and must have the.ini suffix.
Status | Reports the progress of the upload. The upload succeeds even if the file contains errors, but a |
| system event reports the errors in the event log. |
|
|
Upload | Browse to the customized file and upload it so that the current Management Card can use it to set its |
| own configuration. |

To retrieve and customize the file of a configured Management Card, see “How to Export Configuration Settings” on page 79.
Instead of uploading the file to one Management Card, you can export the file to multiple Management Cards by using an FTP or SCP script or a batch file and the American Power Conversion .ini file utility, available from www.apc.com/tools/download.
