Establishing daylight savings rules
In our example, we set daylight savings time rules.
To modify a daylight savings rule:
1. Type
change daylight-savings-rules and press RETURN.
The Daylight Savings Rules screen displays.
2. Complete the Start fields for rule 1.
Rule 1 applies to all time zones in the U.S. and begins on the first Sunday
on or after 1 April at 2:00 a.m. with a 01:00 increment. Daylight Savings
Time stops on the first Sunday on or after 25 October at 2:00 a.m. also with
a 01:00 increment (used as a decrement when switching back to Standard
time.
The increment is added to standard time at the specified start time and the
clock time shifts by that increment (for example, for 01:59:00 to 01:59:59
the clock time shows 01:59 and at 02:00 the clock shows 03:00).
On the stop date, the increment is subtracted from the specified stop time
(for example, for 01:59:00 to 01:59:59 the clock time shows 01:59 and at
02:00 the clock shows 01:00).
a. Type
Sunday in the Change Day field.
b. Type
April in the Month field.
c. Type
1 in the Date field.
d. Type
2:00 in the Time field.
