Time Format allows current time to be
displayed using a 12- or 24- hour clock. This
field is also used to select between local and
UTC time readouts.
To select a time format:
1. Highlight the ‘Time Format’ field and press ENTER
to display the available options.
2. Select ‘Local 24hr’ or ‘Local 12hr’ to display local
time references. ‘Local 12hr’ will show current time
using a traditional AM/PM format, OR

(also referred to as ‘Greenwich’ or ‘zulu’ time).
Local Time Zone is used to define the
current local time. UTC date and time are
calculated directly from the satellites’ signals
and cannot be edited. If you prefer to use
local time, you may designate an offset, either
‘Behind UTC’ or ‘Ahead of UTC’. The offset is
the difference, in hours and minutes,
between local time and UTC time.
To enter the local time zone:
1. Highlight the ‘Local Time Zone’ field and press
ENTER.
2. Select the desired offset amount (in hours and
minutes) using the rocker keypad and press
ENTER.
3. Highlight the offset direction field (immediately to
the right) and press ENTER.
4. Select ‘Behind UTC’ or ‘Ahead of UTC’ (as
appropriate) and press ENTER.
