Property Value

This method allows a AFTimeZone to be configured for the table and would apply to any DateTime columns within the table. An individual column can override this setting by setting the TimeZone extended property value for the column. For more information, see SetExtendedProperty(String, String, Object).

The time zone setting is used by the Table Lookup Data Reference. When set, the DateTime columns within the table will have their Kind property set to Unspecified, and their time will be the time in the specified AFTimeZone. If not set, a DateTime column will default to a time expressed in local time.

As a DataTable is transferred from the PI AF Server to a PI Asset Client, if the AFTimeZone is not set for the table or any DateTime columns, the times will automatically be converted to the client's local time. If the AFTimeZone is set, then no translation of time will occur, except by the AF Table Lookup Data Reference.
