Moon Phase – displays the phase of the moon at the current time and position Sunrise – displays the local time of sunrise for the current day and position Sunset – displays the local time of sunset for the current day and position
Local Time – displays the current time referenced to the local time offset (see Section 5.2.7.12, on page 43 for details on how to set the local time offset)
UTC Time – displays the current time referenced to Universal Time Coordinated (also known as Greenwich Mean Time, or GMT)
