====== Timezone ======

This guide explains how zebrix deals with time and more precisely the timezones.

===== General information =====

  - Zebrix automatically sets the time in the screen at each startup. (It is therefore unnecessary to adjust the time via the screen menu)
  - The time displayed in the menu is always set to GMT (Greenwich Mean Time +00h00) whatever the timezone that is choosen.
  - Zebrix is in charge of transforming the GMT time into the correct local time, thanks to the TimeZone configured on the CMS (see below)
  - Go to "Hardware Tools" on the concerned device, then "Monitor". The local date/time of the screen corresponds to the time translated by zebrix which is the correct local time (GMT time + the time difference applied on it thanks to the timezone that has been choosen).
  - The time that is displayed in a "date/time" zone on the pages assigned to the screen is identical to this local date.
