Software Programming Guide
7.0 DAYLIGHT SAVING
The A 4510 has an optional Daylight Saving mode which is entered through the Programming Software.
In Australia, some of the states have Daylight Saving which begins at 2am on the first Sunday in October when clocks are
put forward one hour. It ends at 2am (which is 3am Daylight Saving Time) on the first Sunday in April, when clocks are put
back an hour.
To initiate the Daylight Saving mode, press the “Add” button on the bottom left of the programming screen under the Day-
light Saving Window. The Daylight Saving window should appear as shown below.
From here the dates can be entered. Select the date for the clocks to move forward and then press OK. The date should
appear in the Daylight Saving window. Press the “Add” button again to enter the Daylight Saving window once more and
enter the date for the clocks to move back an hour and then press OK.
For our example we have selected the dates as shown below.
These dates will then appear as shown below in the Daylight Saving window. Daylight Saving mode is now active and will
take effect at 2am on the specified dates.
NOTE: The daylight saving dates need to be updated every year.
We will save the calendar configuration again by navigating to the “File” menu in the top left corner and selecting “Save”.
The calendar is now complete.
NOTE: When the save button is pressed the configuration will be saved to the root directory from which the software
was run. In our case we ran the software directly from the SD card, so all configuration information will be saved to the SD
card. If we wish to save the configuration elsewhere we could use the “Save As” option which would allow us to navigate
to another folder. There is no option to save the configuration with a preferred name.
The configuration file is saved to the CONFIG folder and the event group information is saved to the GROUPS folder.
