Managing Timezones

To create a new timezone, you need:

• Double-click the root Timezones node

The dialog for adding a new timezone looks like this:

The details are all pretty self-explanatory. There are only a couple of notes to make here:

• The Name is the timezone context name in the system. Thus, it needs to confirm to Iotellect's context naming conventions. This sounds complicated, but it generally just means it can't have spaces in it and has to be unique.

When you double-click a timezone (or right-click it and select Configure Timezone) you get the following dialog:

Note the extra tabs here. When adding the timezone, you could only access the first tab (timezone properties). Now you get extra tab - Timezone Table.

Timezone Table: This is where you enter the timezone entries information. More on this under Managing Timezone entries.

You can select multiple timezones (using Shift+click for contiguous selection and Ctrl+click for selecting multiple timezones in different locations in the tree). If you then right-click your selection, you will be able to edit them all together (or delete them all, etc).
