Set the time zone

You can set the time zone in which the AlarmApp shows the alarm and event records.

You can either set the time display to a predefined time zone, or to the client time zone. The client time zone is the time zone of the computer on which the AlarmApp is running.

The Client Time Zone setting is useful if you are deploying an application using the AlarmApp to a different time zone.

For example, if you develop your application in the Pacific Time zone and deploy it to two computers in the time zones Central Time and Eastern Time, you can ensure the AlarmApp shows the local time for each deployment by setting the time zone to Client Time Zone.

To set the time zone

1. Select the AlarmApp placed on a pane.

2. Select the Properties grid to show AlarmApp properties.

3. Select the ellipsis button shown at the right of the Configuration field to show the AlarmApp's Configuration dialog box.

4. Click the Time Settings tab. The Time Settings page appears.

5. In the Time Zone field, select a time zone.

   

6. Click OK.
