Configuring System Clock Settings
Remote RMX-3200 lets you configure timezones and daylight savings rules for any
location. Three methods are available for configuring timezone and daylight savings
settings:
Configure a timezone and use the default daylight savings settings. See
Configuring Default Settings for details.
Configure a timezone and define custom daylight savings settings. See
Configuring Custom System Clock Settings for details.
Apply daylight savings rules from a timezone definition file. See Configuring a
Timezone Definition File for details.
Each method has a specific format for configuring a timezone. Depending upon the
format used, the daylight savings command will have different usages.
Configuring Default Settings
Important: You must disable NTP before you can configure the Remote RMX-3200
system clock locally.
To configure default system clock settings:
1. At the
config clock prompt, configure the timezone as EST with an offset of
-5:00. This puts the daylight savings configuration into default mode:
config clock timezone EST -5:00
2. Enable U.S. daylight savings rules and configure the name that displays when
daylight savings time is in effect:
config clock daylight-savings EDT
3. Configure the local time as 11:22:30 and the local date as 04/09/2010:
config clock local-time 11:22:30 04/09/2010
In this scenario, you will:
Configure the timezone in default mode
Enable daylight savings default parameters
Configure the local time and date
