Enter the IP address or URL (up to 31 extended ASCII characters in length) of your time 

server. Check with your ISP/network administrator if you are unsure of this information.

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 second Sunday of 

March. 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 Second, Sunday, March 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 first Sunday of November. 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 First, Sunday, November 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).
