5.7.4 Setting time zone
When the clock should run in the UTC, the user should set On for the setting [IS_UTC_base].
Additionally, the user should set the time zone† when the time should be displayed in the Local
standard time. The time zone is divided in every 15 minutes; the user can set it using 0.25
units (i.e., 15 min = 0.25 unit). For example, if the IED is used in Venezuela (UTC-04:30), the
user should set “−4.50” for the setting, as shown Figure 5.7-9.
