DST
For most of the U.S., Daylight Saving Time (DST) runs from the second weekend in March to the first
weekend in November (starting in 2007). Although the SAM RF System assigns access time to each key
produced, with the default being 24 hours per day, some keys, such as Limited Use keys, have specific
expiration times, either by default or by configuration. If the region in which you live does NOT change the
clocks for DST (these areas presently include Alaska, Hawaii, Arizona and parts of Indiana), you will need
to configure SAM RF to take that into account so that the assignment of expiration times are accurate.
1. To confirm that the SAM RF System will account
for DST properly for your region of the country,
click on the Management menu at the top of the
window or the Management icon.
2. Point to Site Design, then select Property
Settings…
3. Click on the DST tab at the top of the box.
4. To set your DST to the current standard, change
your DST Type to LOCAL STANDARD.
• For DST Start, change Month to MAR and
Occurs to 2nd Week.
• For DST End, change Month to NOV and
Occurs to 1st Week.
Note: If your area does not observe DST, you may
alternately choose NONE or NON-STANDARD in the
box under DST Type and choose the appropriate
options.
5. When you have chosen a setting, click OK.
