SETTING THE TIME ZONE

The Model 1500E can be set to one of the four United States time zones. By default, the unit is shipped preset to Eastern Time. It is very easy to switch between time zones. With the touch of a button, you can tell the 1500E what time zone you are in. If you move the time recorder between time zones, the time zone setting will need to be changed manually, but doing so is easy and you will maintain extreme accuracy.
