Setting a time zone allows for times to be displayed in the local time instead of in UTC. The 7210 SAS supports both user-defined and system-defined time zones.
A user-defined time zone has a user-assigned name of up to four printable ASCII characters that is different from the system-defined time zones. For user-defined time zones, the offset from UTC is configured, as well as any summer time adjustment for the time zone.
The following table describes the system-defined time zones, including time zones with and without summer time correction.
