3 Fill in the following fields:
Time Zone Name: Provide a name for the time zone definition (for example, some of the
major cities in the time zone). We suggest you include a reference (+ or -) to GMT, for example
(GMT-07:00). The time zone list is sorted by the GMT offset.
Offset from GMT: Specify the hours and minutes that the time zone is offset from Greenwich
Mean Time. The offset from GMT keeps your different locations synchronized. For example, if
a conference call is scheduled for 4:00 p.m. June 1 in Salt Lake City, the call would appear on a
schedule in Adelaide at 8:30 a.m. June 2. If you are in the western hemisphere (west of the
Greenwich Meridian and east of the International Date Line) be sure the hour offset is negative
(-). If you are in the eastern hemisphere (east of the Greenwich meridian and west of the
International Date Line) be sure the hour offset is positive.
Abbreviation: Specify an abbreviation for the time zone. For example, the abbreviation for
Atlantic Standard Time could be AST; the abbreviation for Atlantic Daylight Time could be
ADT.
Observe Daylight Saving Time: If the time zone observes daylight saving time, click the
Observe Daylight Saving Time box, then fill out the remaining fields:
Start Day: Select the day and time that daylight saving time starts.
Last Day: Select the day and time that daylight saving time ends.
Bias: Select the number of hours and minutes that the clock changes at the daylight saving
time start day, such as1 hour or 1 hour 30 minutes.
