Setting Daylight Saving
If you selected your time zone from the drop-down list (see
), the library automatically adjusts for daylight saving time.
There is no need to manually reset the clock for time changes.
However, if you set a custom time zone, the library will not automatically
adjust for daylight saving time. You must enable the
Use Custom Daylight
Saving Time
setting. Once enabled, you can set start and stop times to an
accuracy of one minute.
