The daylight savings time option is disabled in the ETC II by default. The
default daylight savings time change points are pre-set for the U.S.A.
When daylight savings time is enabled, the meter automatically adjusts the
device clock at 02.00 AM when daylight savings time begins/ends. If the
daylight savings time option is disabled, you must manually adjust the
device clock for daylight savings time.
