Defining time zones by country and language
Time zones are based on the actual time zone where the Business Communications Manager is
located. The Time Zone dropdown list on the initialization screen, allows you to be very specific in
choosing a compatible time zone. If your exact location is not on the list, choose the one with the
time zone closest to you. Note that some time zones are individualized because they do not switch
from Standard Time to Daylight Saving Time. For example, this is the case for Saskatchewan.
The format of the time and date changes are based on the prime language of the region. Table 60
provides a list of formats based on language or country.
System defaults
Table 61 compares the system defaults for the North American, Global and UK regions. In
addition, the following functionality applies:
• Regions for Denmark, Holland and Sweden are the same as the Global region except for the
default to local languages and local tones and cadences.
• The Region for the Caribbean is the same as the North American region except that it supports
the M7000 telephone.
• The Region for CALA is the same as the Caribbean region, except NI ISDN is replaced by
ETSI ISDN (u-law).
• The Region for Europe is the same as the United Kingdom region except there are no default
dialing restrictions, and ATA parameters are set to European values.
