settings are used as standard timer settings for functions that require them.
NOTE
You can also specify to automatically synchronize the date and time with a server on the
network from the Additional Functions screen. (See Chapter 3, "Using a TCP/IP
Network," in the Network Guide.)

• GMT: The time at the Greenwich Observatory in England is
called GMT (Greenwich Mean Time).
• Time Zone: The standard time zones of the world are expressed
globally in terms of the difference in hours ( up to 12
hours) from GMT ( 0 hours). A time zone is a region
throughout which this time difference is the same.
• Daylight Saving Time: In some countries, time is advanced throughout the
summer season. The period in which this is applied is
called "Daylight Saving Time."
