AUTOMATIC TIME
The time information supplied by the GPS satellites is in Universal Time Coordinates (UTC
or Greenwich England Mean Time). To change the GPS Chart Plotter to read the correct
time, first you must figure out the offset and if it is Daylight Savings Time. For example on
the West coast of the United States or Pacific Standard Time the offset needed would be
–08:00 or –07:00 for Daylight Savings Time, Eastern Standard Time –05:00 or –04:00 for
Daylight Savings Time.
