Hours

max. +/- 13:00h
Minutes
00 ... 59
The operational sign designates the direction in which the local time differs from UTC time:
'+'
corresponds to east of the prime meridian (Greenwich)
'-'
corresponds to west of the prime meridian (Greenwich)
As most countries of the world select their time offset in whole hours the input is also in steps
of one hour:
e.g. + 05:00 or - 11:00
However, some countries operate with smaller time steps; thus minute-by-minute entry is also
possible:
e.g. + 05:30 or - 08:45
Example for Germany:

The time difference of two hours is
calculated by:
+01:00h time zone offset and
+01:00h for the daylight saving
time offset (changeover points in
time must be set).
