your time server. Check with your ISP/network administrator if you

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).
