Time Zone Setup |
|
|
|
Time Zone | Choose the time zone of your location. This will set the time difference |
| between your time zone and Greenwich Mean Time (GMT). |
|
|
Daylight Savings | Daylight saving is a period from late spring to early fall when many countries |
| set their clocks ahead of normal local time by one hour to give more daytime |
| light in the evening. |
| Select this option if you use Daylight Saving Time. |
|
|
Start Date | Configure the day and time when Daylight Saving Time starts if you selected |
| Daylight Savings. The o'clock field uses the 24 hour format. Here are a |
| couple of examples: |
| Daylight Saving Time starts in most parts of the United States on the first |
| Sunday of April. Each time zone in the United States starts using Daylight |
| Saving Time at 2 A.M. local time. So in the United States you would select |
| First, Sunday, April and type 2 in the o'clock field. |
| Daylight Saving Time starts in the European Union on the last Sunday of |
| March. All of the time zones in the European Union start using Daylight Saving |
| Time at the same moment (1 A.M. GMT or UTC). So in the European Union |
| you would select Last, Sunday, March. The time you type in the o'clock field |
| depends on your time zone. In Germany for instance, you would type 2 |
| because Germany's time zone is one hour ahead of GMT or UTC (GMT+1). |
|
|
End Date | Configure the day and time when Daylight Saving Time ends if you selected |
| Daylight Savings. The o'clock field uses the 24 hour format. Here are a |
| couple of examples: |
| Daylight Saving Time ends in the United States on the last Sunday of October. |
| Each time zone in the United States stops using Daylight Saving Time at 2 |
| A.M. local time. So in the United States you would select Last, Sunday, |
| October and type 2 in the o'clock field. |
| Daylight Saving Time ends in the European Union on the last Sunday of |
| October. All of the time zones in the European Union stop using Daylight |
| Saving Time at the same moment (1 A.M. GMT or UTC). So in the European |
| Union you would select Last, Sunday, October. The time you type in the |
| o'clock field depends on your time zone. In Germany for instance, you would |
| type 2 because Germany's time zone is one hour ahead of GMT or UTC |
| (GMT+1). |
