512 Matrix ETERNITY NE System Manual
Date-Month Wise
• If you select the Date-Month Wise option, you should now select the desired options in each of the
following combo boxes:
• Date: The date on which DST begins (1-31).
• Month: The name of the month when DST begins (January-December).
• Change Time From: The time when DST will begin to change. The time mode is 24 hours, with
options from 00 to 23 hours and 00 to 59 minutes.
• To: The time to which the DST is advanced. The time mode is 24 hours, with options from 00 to 23
hours and 00 to 59 minutes.
• Now, go to the option 'Backward Time Adjustments' to set the time back (i.e. end DST and begin standard
time).
• Follow the same steps described above to set the day/date, month, hours and minutes except, here you
must set these parameters according to the time when DST ends.
• Click Submit to save your DST settings.
• ETERNITY NE gives you the flexibility to set the 'Forward DST Adjustment' according to Date-Month,
while the Backward DST Adjustment according to Day-Month. Similarly, the reverse is also possible,
i.e. Forward DST may be set according to Day-Month, while the Backward DST may be set as Date-
Month. This is flexibility is particularly useful for setting DST of countries where the start of DST is
defined by date and month, e.g. First of April, but the end of DST is defined by Day and Month, e.g. the
last Sunday of October (as observed in Cuba).
