Title: DIR 655 Rev B1 Ver 2.01NA - Daylight Savings Time adjustment not useable
Post by: mithras on February 17, 2011, 10:12:19 AM

Daylight Savings Time 2011   March 13   November 6
Daylight Savings Time 2012   March 11   November 4
Daylight Savings Time 2013   March 10   November 3
Daylight Savings Time 2014   March 9   November 2
Daylight Savings Time 2015   March 8   November 1
Daylight Savings Time 2016   March 13   November 6
Daylight Savings Time 2017   March 12   November 5

There are the begin/end times for future daylight savings times.  In the TIME left hand tab, under TIME CONFIGURATION, it is not possible to enter a number higher than "6th" for either of the two options.  So, every single start date is not possible.  It would be way more useful to have it know the year, month and day (over 6) for maybe the next 10 years.  This way, we could put in the next so many years, and it would handle those time changes automatically.  It's not the same every year, so as it stands, it's hardly worth using.

Those aren't dates. Those are the weeks. So if you have the 3rd week chosen for March and Sunday as the day, DST will start on the 13th this year.

Thanks!  It's definitely marked as weeks - just used to it being year-month-day.
