Setting the current date and time is very important. The current date and time settings are used as standard timer settings for functions that require them.

GMT:
|
The time at the Greenwich Observatory in England is called GMT (Greenwich Mean Time).
|
|
Time Zone:
|
The standard time zones of the world are expressed globally in terms of the difference in hours (up to 12 hours) from GMT (0 hours). A time zone is a region throughout which this time difference is the same.
|
|
Daylight Saving Time:
|
In some countries, time is advanced throughout the summer season. The period in which this is applied is called "Daylight Saving Time."

NOTE
|

You can also specify to automatically synchronize the date and time with a server on the network from the Settings/Registration screen. (See "Settings Common to TCP/IPv4 and TCP/IPv6.")
