How to
Changing the Time Zone of an EcoStruxure BMS Server
You change the time zone of an EcoStruxure BMS server to adjust the UTC offset according to the region where the EcoStruxure BMS server is located.
The Enterprise Server and Enterprise Central time and date settings are configured through the operating system settings on which the Enterprise Server and Enterprise Central are installed. The time zone offset, configured through the Enterprise Server or Enterprise Central, is added by the EcoStruxure Building Operation software to the UTC time. The Enterprise Server and Enterprise Central time zone settings are therefore independent of the operating system time zone settings.
The Enterprise Server uses the operating system clock on which the server is installed. Time zone offset and DST are then added by the EcoStruxure Building Operation software to the UTC time.The same is true regarding the Enterprise Central.
To adjust your operating system clock, refer to your manufacturer’s manual for the operating system. The Enterprise Server and Enterprise Central time zones are configured through WorkStation.
The Date and Time synchronization for Automation Server do not affect the Enterprise Server clock. For more information, see Synchronize Network Time Settings .
In WorkStation, in the System Tree pane, select the EcoStruxure BMS server you want to configure.
Click the Control Panel tab.
Click Network time and time zones .
In the Date & Time View , select Predefined time zone and then select the time zone the EcoStruxure BMS server is located in.
On the File menu, click Save .
If your time zone is not listed, you can create and configure a custom time zone.
