from the time server you select in the Time Server Address
field.

Time Zone
Time Zone

Choose the time zone of your location. This will set the time
difference between your time zone and Greenwich Mean Time
(GMT).

Enable Daylight Saving Daylight saving is a period from late spring to early fall when

many countries set their clocks ahead of normal local time by
one hour to give more daytime light in the evening.

Select this option if you use Daylight Saving Time.

Start Date

Configure the day and time when Daylight Saving Time starts if
you selected Enable Daylight Saving. The hour field uses the
24 hour format. Here are a couple of examples:

Daylight Saving Time starts in most parts of the United States
on the second Sunday of March. Each time zone in the United
States starts using Daylight Saving Time at 2 A.M. local time. So
in the United States you would use March, Second, Sunday, at
2:00.

Daylight Saving Time starts in the European Union on the last
Sunday of March. All of the time zones in the European Union
start using Daylight Saving Time at the same moment (1 A.M.
GMT or UTC). So in the European Union you would select
March, Last, Sunday. The time you specify depends on your
time zone. In Germany for instance, you would type 2 because
Germany's time zone is one hour ahead of GMT or UTC
(GMT+1).
