NOTE. When the DST event occurs, the scheduled offset will be added to the time
zone offset, and the DST schedule will be cleared. This allows for a new schedule
to be set up for any time in the future.
The Offset adjustment allows you to enter a time zone correction of up to ±23:59
hours. However, the ST309 standard only implements codes for time zones in the
range of -12 to +13 hours. Therefore, when the G PS7 module is set to use ST309
data
as the Time of Day source, it is recommended that the combined programmed
offset from time zone and DST be restricted to the range of -12 to +13 hours.
