12.5 Location
The astronomical clock in the CueCore2 calculates the sunrise and sunset times
based on day of the year, latitude, longitude and UTC. The latitude and longi-
tude values define the position in the world and should be entered in degrees.
The latitude value should be positive for North and negative for South, the
longitude should positive for East and negative for West.
The website http://www.findlatitudeandlongitude.com/ can help discover
the latitude and longitude values for the current location. The time-zone and
perhaps daylight saving time of the current location is expressed in the UTC
value. UTC is - in this context - equivalent to Greenwich Mean Time (GMT).
For example, Visual Productions' HQ is based in the city of Haarlem, the
Netherlands. During the winter the UTC equals +1 and in the summer during
day light saving time it is set to +2. So, the settings for the Visual Productions'
HQ are shown in Figure 12.6.
The Offset fields allows to shift the sunrise and sunset triggers, both earlier
and later. For example, to have a trigger half an hour before sunrise set the
offset to -00:30.
