Appendix M: Daylight Saving Time on your DVR

You may have to adjust your system’s time during daylight saving months. The table below illustrates the DVR’s that automatically adjust to Daylight Saving Time (DST), and DVRs that must have their system time manually adjusted.

NOTE: You must configure and enable automatic DST on your DVR even if your system supports the feature.

Why is the DVR timestamp important?

Your DVR’s time stamp is crucial when submitting surveillance video as court evidence. It is highly recommended to double-check that your system has the proper time, even if your system supports automatic DST adjustments.

When should I adjust my system clock?

In North America, most cities observe DST.

•In March: the clock moves one hour forward

•In November: the clock moves one hour backward

The specific date in the month where DST starts and ends varies each year. The table below applies to North America only.
