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). |
