SyScan asks for My Time Zone -00:00?

[JamieH]

What is my current time zone?

My SynScan asks for me to change the -00:00 or +00:00?

My coordinates (example) being 003 degrees 45' W 55 degrees 19' N

The manual says - for West & + for East.

Do this mean I am -001 degrees West. I don't know vwhether to enter -00:00 because we are out of daylight saving. Or do I enter +00:00. Which could be the correct one for me please.

After that the SynScan asks for my local time. I think I use my laptops 17:47 (UTC) Dublin, Edinburgh, Lisbon, London for this one. Is this correct?

Thanks,

Jamie

Timezone is 00:00

You are -1.66 or -1 40 Not sure if decimal or deg and min.

Your local time is whatever it is by your watch and DST is off.

You may be being asked to change the time zone as it possibly displays 00:00 as a default, I suspect that by entering 00:00 yourself is considered a change simply because you entered it. For some reason I have the idea that -00:00 is what you put in - just not sure why.

The handset goes from - to + on the 0 setting. It makes no difference which - although on some early versions of the software below (I think V3.25) it did in fact mess up alignment unless you selected (I think) the - setting.

the time zone will be 00.00 -or + dont matter

DST is off for this time of year

the time is the current time, try to use the most correct time you can an internet source clock will be good, it will make a difference in alignment
