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). |
