Step 6. Click in the Value field adjacent to GMT Minute Offset Property, type in the entry, and
then press the keyboard enter key.
The GMT Minute Offset is to used synchronize the time of day between the gateway and
SNPT Server.
• Use this formula to determine the setting: the US Central Time is minus 6 hours
from GMT, therefore your calculation would be -6 (hours) x 60 (minutes) = -360
minutes.
Step 7. Click in the Value field adjacent to Observe DST and then select True if you want the
gateway to automatically increment or decrement time of day according to Time Zone
Reference setting.
