Setting the Daylight Saving Time
Daylight saving time function
1D. S.T. execution time
At 2:00 a.m. on the first day of summer time, the clock automatically gains one hour to show 3:00 a.m. When 2:00 a.m. comes on the last day of the summer time period, it loses one hour and returns to 1:00 a.m.
2Setting D. S.T.
Example:
Start date Sunday, March 30, 2003 End date Sunday, October 26, 2003
If set as the above, the unit remembers the start date as the last Sunday of March and the end date as the last Sunday of October. Once set, the unit automatically updates the settings every year thereafter. No further manual setting is necessary.
When there is a time change between the "IN" and "OUT" because of the "Daylight Savings" settings, an "S" will appear on the calculated result as a record mark.
In order to prevent miscalculations on the day you adjust the "Daylight Savings" time, punching "OUT" the next day is not desirable.
The "S" mark may not be printed properly when "Daylight Savings" turned on because of other changes in settings.
The setting for daylight saving time will be described using the following example.
