I have been following the thread from “Brand New User … Many Questions” with interest.
Think I made some mistakes in my settings, will need to ask a series of questions to regain my understanding of the program. First, some definitions of the program, actual menu selections are in bold:
Raw data = manually entered times (scheduled and actual) on the APDL PPC (View)(Logbook Page) screen
Timezones in APDL PPC
1. In the (Timezone) menu, at the bottom of the screen, the options of (Logbook), (Zulu), (Local) or (Domicile) denote the timezone of the manually entered and displayed OUT/IN times (raw data) in APDL PPC, correct?
Example 1:
If (Timezone) (Zulu) is CHECKED; and annunciated at top of the screen with Logpage (Zulu), then APDL treats these raw data times as ZULU-times for subsequent synch'ing.
2. In (Options)(Preferences)(Time Zone Settings) the selection of a “Logbook zone” ONLY affects HOW LBP PC treats and then displays (in LBP PC) the raw data times (as in Example 1) during an APDL synch, correct?
Example 2:
In (Timezone) menu (Zulu) is checked
In (Options)(Preferences)(Time Zone Settings) the “Logbook” zone is set to “UTC-5”
Raw data:
APDL OUT: 1500 (Z)
APDL IN: 1630 (Z)
After synchronizing this APDL PPC entry, then LBP PC displays:
OUT: 1000
IN: 1130
Both times reflecting UTC-5
Am I correct in these definitions???
More questions to come after your reply.
Thanks
