Screen 7: Time Zone
The console is pre-programmed with a combination of US time zones and
the names of major cities representing time zones around the world. You can
also configure your time zone using the Universal Time Coordinate (UTC)
offset.
Note: UTC offset measures the difference between the time in any time zone and a standard time,
set by convention as the time at the Royal Observatory in Greenwich, England. Hayward,
California, the home of Davis Instruments, observes Pacific Standard Time. The UTC offset for
Pacific Standard Time is -8:00, or eight hours behind Universal Time (UT). When it’s 7:00 pm
(1900 hours) UT, it’s 19 - 8 = 1100 hours, or 11:00 am in Hayward.

Screen 8: Daylight Savings Settings
In most of North America, including Mexico (excepting Saskatchewan, East-
ern Indiana, Arizona, and Hawaii), as well as in Australia (excepting Western
Australia, Northern Territory, and Queensland) and in Europe use the AUTO
Daylight Savings setting. The console is pre-programmed to use the correct
starting and stopping dates for Daylight Savings Time in these areas, based
on the time zone setting in screen 7.
Weather stations located in areas not listed above should use the MANUAL
setting.
