Setting Daylight Savings Time for model MRX-35

 

Setting Daylight Savings Time (DST) Start and End Times for 
the Amano MRX-35 Time Clocks  

The following information is effective for Year 2007 and later for U.S.-based time clocks 

Note: The following DST changes are necessary because of the government-mandated change for new 
start and end date for all US states that observe the DST calendar beginning in 2007. 

Do not modify your time clock’s DST setting until after November 5

, 2006. Otherwise, you will create a 

conflict with your 2006 settings. 

About the DST Change:

 

From 1986 to 2006, DST started the first Sunday in April and ended the last Sunday in October. 

Starting in 2007, DST starts the second Sunday in March and ends the first Sunday in November. 

If you have not adjusted the DST start- and end-times for your time clock, proceed with the following 
instructions. 

Your Amano Time Clock is programmed with the old DST calendar structure. A one-time customization 
change will allow your clock to correctly set itself for the new DST structure for 2007 and each year 
thereafter. 

For your reference, dates for DST change are as follows for the period of 2007 to 2011: 

2007: March 11 - Nov. 4 

2008: March 9 - Nov. 2  

2009: March 8 - Nov. 1 

2010: March 14 - Nov. 7 

2011: March 13 - Nov. 6 

Note that although the date is different each year, you need only change the start and end times once for 
the change to take effect each year thereafter through the year 2099. 

Hawaii and Arizona will be the only U.S. states that do not observe DST after 2006. 

The Daylight Saving Time Function operates in the following manner: 

• 

When 2:00 am comes on the first day of daylight saving time, the clock automatically gains one 
hour to show 3:00 am. (The clock will change from 1:59 am to 3:00 am for beginning of DST.) 

• 

When 2:00 am comes on the last day of daylight saving time, the clock will automatically lose 
one hour and return to 1:00 am. (The clock will change from 1:59am to 1:00am for the end of 
DST.)
