RATION

The POS, SUNRISE and SUNSET fields are all re-calculated each time you alter the

position or date.
Please Note: The Sunrise and Sunset times displayed on this screen are displayed in YOUR

LOCAL TIME (i.e. UTC + your local offset), not the local time of the position selected.
Allowance must be made if the position you have selected is in a different time zone from that

for which the unit is set up for.
