DHCP Scope Options Guide for IP Clocks DHCP Scope Options Guide for IP Clocks All of the information necessary for a Valcom IP Clock to operate can be obtained through Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP). If the IP Clock has been programmed to use DHCP for its IP address, then it will also request options from the DHCP server to set its time server, time zone, etc. In addition to the normal DHCP settings for IP address, subnet mask and gateway, there are other options related to network time that must be set in the DHCP server. These options are outlined below. Due to the variety of DHCP servers in use, it is beyond the scope of this document to provide instructions on how to specify these options in a particular server. Option 42 NTP Servers are listed by IP address using option 42. This is a standard option defined in RFC 2132. Option 100 or Option 101 Option 100 (Time zone POSIX string) or Option 101 (Time zone database reference) must be used to define the time zone for the clock display. These options are defined in RFC 4833. Either or both of these options may be used with Valcom IP devices. Option 100 provides a POSIX text string that defines the time zone offset from UTC, along with information on Daylight Saving Time. An example of this definition for the Eastern time zone in America is ”EST5EDT4,M3.2.0/02:00,M11.1.0/02:00”. This specifies a time zone 5 hours behind UTC (four hours during DST). DST starts at 2:00 am on the second Sunday in March and ends at 2:00 am on the first Sunday in November. Option 101 provides a text string that corresponds to an entry in the TZ database. An example of this type of entry for the Eastern time zone in America is “America/New_York”. The value entered must exactly match an entry in the TZ database, where it will be used to determine the UTC offset and DST information. The database is maintained by the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) and can be referenced at http://www.iana.org/time-zones. Page 1 of 1 .

  • Daylight Saving Time (DST)
    Daylight Saving Time (DST) Updated September 30, 2020 Congressional Research Service https://crsreports.congress.gov R45208 Daylight Saving Time (DST) Summary Daylight Saving Time (DST) is a period of the year between spring and fall when clocks in most parts of the United States are set one hour ahead of standard time. DST begins on the second Sunday in March and ends on the first Sunday in November. The beginning and ending dates are set in statute. Congressional interest in the potential benefits and costs of DST has resulted in changes to DST observance since it was first adopted in the United States in 1918. The United States established standard time zones and DST through the Calder Act, also known as the Standard Time Act of 1918. The issue of consistency in time observance was further clarified by the Uniform Time Act of 1966. These laws as amended allow a state to exempt itself—or parts of the state that lie within a different time zone—from DST observance. These laws as amended also authorize the Department of Transportation (DOT) to regulate standard time zone boundaries and DST. The time period for DST was changed most recently in the Energy Policy Act of 2005 (EPACT 2005; P.L. 109-58). Congress has required several agencies to study the effects of changes in DST observance. In 1974, DOT reported that the potential benefits to energy conservation, traffic safety, and reductions in violent crime were minimal. In 2008, the Department of Energy assessed the effects to national energy consumption of extending DST as changed in EPACT 2005 and found a reduction in total primary energy consumption of 0.02%.

  • Application Note AN2015-03
    Application Note AN2015-03 Solving UTC and Local Time Time-Stamp Challenges Using ACSELERATOR TEAM® SEL-5045 Software Joshua Hughes INTRODUCTION As intelligent electronic devices (IEDs) that allow historical data recording and trending (such as protective relays and revenue meters) are integrated into power systems, it becomes apparent that correlating time between devices at multiple locations can be a complex issue. It is good practice to connect high-accuracy clocks to all IEDs to allow for event analysis. When comparing events, it is usually easy to determine if one event record is applicable or not because of time zone differences or daylight-saving time (DST) discrepancies. However, when comparing continuous trending data, such as load profile data, it becomes much more important to record accurate time zone and DST information. Without this information, the data profile might not provide enough detail to determine what local time the data were recorded in. This application note describes the challenges associated with time zones and DST, and it presents two ACSELERATOR TEAM® SEL-5045 Software configurations for solving time-stamp ambiguity issues. PROBLEM The two major challenges associated with data time stamps are time zones and DST application. Most users prefer that IEDs in the field be programmed with local time to make their jobs easier, but this causes complications with older devices that do not understand time zones or DST. Time Zones Local times were first determined by apparent solar time using devices such as sundials. Because apparent solar time fluctuates based on where the measurement is taken (roughly four minutes for every degree of longitude), time zones were created to maintain a standard time between multiple regions.

  • Atomix Atomic Clock 00562 Instructions
    Atomix Atomic Clock Model 00562 About the Atomic Clock The National Institute of Standard and Technology (NIST) in Fort Collins, Colorado broadcasts the time signal (WWVB at 60 kHz AM radio signal) with an accuracy of 1 second per every 3,000 years. The signal is able to cover a distance of up to 2,000 miles from the source. Like a typical AM radio, your atomic clock will not be able to receive the WWVB signal in places surrounded by heavy concrete or metal panels. The reception of the time signal is also greatly affected by electrical or electronic interference. To get the best performance from the atomic clock, install the clock nearer to a window facing west. Battery Installation and Set Up Remove the battery cover and insert 2 “AA” alkaline batteries according to the direction shown inside the battery compartment. Once the batteries are installed the display will show all segments of the LCD display for 3 seconds and will beep once. Then the display will show 12:00pm Jan 1, 2000 together with room temperature. The Time Zone is defaulted at PST – Pacific Standard Time. Select the correct Timer Zone 1. Press the ZONE / DST button to select PST, MST, CST or EST. 2. Once a time zone is selected, your Atomix clock will start searching for the time signal. 3. While your Atomix clock is seeking the signal, the signal strength icon will change gradually indicating the search is continuing. 4. If the signal is available, your Atomix clock will display the local time in about 3-5 minutes.

  • Parameter Codes Are Five-Digit Codes Used to Identify the Constituent Measured and the Units of Measure
    QWDATA: Section 2 – Getting Started 2 GETTING STARTED 2.1 Terminology 2.1.1 Sample An environmental sample is the portion of a media (water, sediment, tissue, etc.) collected from a site for a specific date and time for analysis. A sample in the database is uniquely identified by the key variables, analyzing agency code, station number, begin date, begin time, end date, end time and medium code. The results of the chemical analyses and physical determinations for a sample are generally stored as one sample. These key variables are sometimes adjusted to separate samples that are hydrologically linked, but cannot be stored as one sample. Examples: Quality-control samples are stored as separate samples using one of the designated QC (Quality Control) medium codes. Samples from different depths or cross-sections may use time to ‘off-set’ samples that were collected at the same site on the same date. 2.1.2 Result Values derived from chemical analyses or physical determinations of a sample are stored in the database as results. Results are uniquely identified in each sample by a parameter code that defines the property or constituent measured. 2.1.3 Parameter Code Parameter Codes are five-digit codes used to identify the constituent measured and the units of measure. Some parameter code definitions include information about the methods used to measure the constituent, but this level of information is not currently consistent in the naming system. 2.1.4 Record This is equivalent in the database to a single, uniquely identified sample. 2.1.5 Record Number A record number is an eight-digit number assigned to a sample when the sample is logged into the database.

  • The Jerusalem Teddy Park Sundial
    The Jerusalem Teddy Park Sundial The beam of light emitted from the Sun takes about 8 minutes and 20 seconds to reach the sundial. This is due to the fact that the Sun is at an average distance of about 150 million km from the Earth. The sundial is a device which is intended to display the time according to the relative position of the Sun in its apparent motion across the sky. The sundial represents the cyclical nature of the Sun's motion across the sky, as it is seen during the day and throughout the year. This sundial is the result of a unique design. The stone base of the sundial is inclined at an angle equal to the geographical latitude in which it is erected – 31 degrees, 46 minutes and 32 seconds, northern latitude. In this design, the gnomon - the pointer which casts the shadow, also known as the indicator - is parallel to the stone base of the sundial, unlike sundials in which the gnomon is perpendicular to the stone base or inclined at an angle which is equal to the latitude of its location. In addition, a special sight is available at the top of the gnomon, through which the North Star, Polaris, can be seen in proximity to the point where the Earth's rotational axis intersects the celestial sphere. The indentation at the center of the stone base of the sundial is intended to cast a circle of light on the bottom plate. Every day throughout the year at the same time (e.g.

Each machine has its own clock. There is a delay between reading the clock value and processing it. Clocks can differ between readers (Special Theory of Relativity by Einstein). Clocks break over time (clock drift). Best of them have drift rate around 10−13 second. Standard second is defined as 9,192,631,770 periods of transition between the two hyperfine levels of the ground state of Caesium-133. Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) is based on atomic time.
