Set Daylight Savings Rules [R9r]

Return to Task List

You can set up to 15 customized daylight savings time rules. If you have switches in several different time zones, you can set up rules for each. See Typical Daylight Savings Rules screen. A daylight savings time rule specifies the exact time when you want to transition to and from daylight savings time. It also specifies the increment at which to transition.

Note:

The default daylight savings rule is 0, no daylight savings.

Type change daylight-savings-rules and press Enter.

Type the appropriate start and stop information in the Change Day, Month, Date, Time, and Increment (for example, 1:00 equals one hour) fields for each rule.

Note:

You can change any rule except rule 0 (zero). You cannot delete a daylight savings rule if it is in use on either the Locations or Date and Time screens.

Press Enter to effect changes.
