Setting daylight savings time rules

Even though you set the date, time, and time zone through the Web interface on the media server, you also must set the daylight savings time rules through SAT commands.

1.Type change daylight-savings-rules and press Enter.

	Stop: first	on or after			at	:
7: Start: first		on or after			at	:	:
	Stop: first	on or after			at	:

2.In the Change Day, Month, Date, Time, and Increment columns, type the appropriate Start and Stop information for each rule. For example, 1:00 in the Increment field means to move the clock forward or back by one hour at the transition point.

You can set up to 15 customized daylight savings time rules. If you have media gateways in several different time zones, you can set up rules for them on a per-location basis. A daylight savings time rule specifies the exact time when you want to transition to and from daylight savings time. It also specifies the increment at which to transition.

Note:

The default daylight savings rule is 0, meaning no daylight savings transition. You can change any rule except rule 0 (zero). You cannot delete a daylight savings rule if it is in use on either the Locations or Date and Time screens.

3. When done, press Enter to effect the changes.
