This property returns an AFTime, which represents the server time in Coordinated Universal Time (UTC). The property AFTime.LocalTime will convert the UTC Time to the local client time zone, which may be different than the server time zone. To see the time as the local time in the server's timezone, use the following command (where 'server' is the PIServer or PISystem object): server.ServerTimeZone.ToLocalTime(server.ServerTime). |
