All of the UTC Offset drop-down selections are configured as UTC
plus or minus a set number of hours.
Examples for the US: For Eastern, choose UTC–05:00; for Central,
choose UTC-06:00; for Mountain, choose UTC-07:00; and for Pacific,
choose UTC-08:00.
If you wish to use DST (Daylight Savings Time ["Summer Time"])
rules, click the Use DST Rules box. Otherwise the time for the local
clock will always be standard time.
DST options will appear in the Local Clock window:
6.
Set DST Rules by Region: Check this box to apply regional DST rules. A
regions drop-down menu with the following options will display:
EU (Europe): For locations complying with the European DST Rule.
This rule differs from all other rules because the DST changes occur
based on UTC time, not local time (all time zones in Europe change
for DST at precisely the same time relative to UTC, rather than offset
by local time zone).
US-Canada: For locations complying with the USA’s DST Rule (as it
was changed to back in 2006, where the “DST into” date is the
Second Sunday of March and the “DST out” date is the first Sunday of
November).
Australia.
