Usage Guidelines
This command subtracts exactly 1 hour from the configured time.
The WORD can be any alphanumeric string, but cannot start with a colon (:). A WORD longer than five characters is
not accepted. If you enter a WORD containing punctuation, the command is accepted, but the timezone is set to
UTC.
You can configure the time to change on a recurring basis. To do so, set the week, day, month, and time when
the change takes effect (daylight savings time starts). You must also set the week, day, month, and time when
the time changes back (daylight savings time ends).
