Reminder: Since 2007, Dates for the Daylight Saving Time have changed.
IRISTEXT units designed before 2007 are programmed (in automatic mode) to go on Daylight Saving Time on previous dates (1st Sunday of April, 2 Am to last Sunday in October 2, Am).

Thereafter, those living in a region where new DST time dates have been adopted, will have to do DST and Normal Time changes manually by adjusting the clock, twice a year at the right time.
These changes can be done rapidly with I-Reach software. Please click on: dst check settings.pdf. If you do not have I-Reach, please refer to Sections 8.1 E and 8.1 F in your Iristext learning guide or see the list of manuals available in PDF format.
