System Date, Time, Time Zone, DST, Keyboard Language

System Date, Time, TZ and DST

Changing the system's clock is done via the Date/Time control in the Marquee Control Panel. The Date and Time are set on the first tab you see when you launch the control.

To adjust the Time Zone (which is important if you are using Astronomical Events or want to synchronize your system with World Time Services), select the second tab and choose the appropriate time zone. Check whether or not your region uses Daylight Savings Time or not.

The last tab determines whether or not Marquee will look to World Time Servers on the Internet, such as time.windows.com to synchronize your clock to World Standard Time. To do this all of the following must be true:

• You must be on the Internet (see Network Setup)

• The date (see above) must be set correctly

• Your time zone must be correct (see above)

Note:

To make Time Zones Changes take effect in the Status Bubbles, you will have to restart Marquee.
