Setting the time to UTC?

Okay my local time is 1 hour behind. My UTC time is correct. In /etc/rc.conf iI have "HARDWARECLOCK="UTC" but everywhere the time is displayed its in local time? Is there a way to set the time to UTC system wide?

Are you dualbooting windows btw? If you are, keep HARDWARECLOCK at localtime

  • Setting the Time not Working :\

    I've been trying to set the correct time on my machine for a while now, but Arch still keeps saying that I'm in CET. I've gone into /etc/rc.conf and edited the correct strings. Currently, I've got it set to UTC, and the timezone is America/Los_Angeles. I've tried UTC and US/Pacific, UTC and US/Pacific-New, as well as localtime. Any ideas on what is keeping it from correctly setting the time?

    8 hours is the difference between UTC and PST.  If you have the BIOS clock set to your local time then the entries in /etc/rc.conf ought to be:
    HARDWARECLOCK="localtime"
    TIMEZONE="America/Los_Angeles"
    Only set HARDWARECLOCK to UTC if the BIOS clock is set to UTC.

  • How do you set the time period on IMAP email accounts (razr maxx)

    Hi Guys -
    Does anyone know how you can set the time period that the stock email will keep the already downloaded messages for IMAP email accounts?
    Mine never seems to show more than a couple of days worth at a time. I'd ideally like to be able to see at least 2 weeks worth of messages without needing to download them again!
    On other phones I've had there was a setting in the menu, but either I can't find it...or it's not there. I've found the setting for how OFTEN it checks the accounts, but not the setting I am seeking.
    Your help is appreciated!
    Best Wishes for the Holiday Season.

    Hey Rich.  Once in 'settings,' there should be a "days to sync' under the 'data usage' section.   You don't have that?

  • Can't set the time on the 6500 Slide

    I just bought a 6500 slide and can't do one of the most basic things - set the time!
    I have gone to auto-update but it is shows the wrong time.
    At the time I purchased the handset the sales assistant turned the phone on to check if my sim card was working but he may have saved the incorrect date and time.
    I have managed to save the correct date but can't for the life of me now save the correct time.
    Can anyone help?
    So simple but yet I can't figure it out.
    Thanks.

    Hi racheljc,
    Try this:
    Menu
    Settings
    Time and date
    Time
    From there, you should be able to change the time.
    I hope this helps.

  • Setting the time on 1300 bridges

    stupid question, how do you set the clock on the 1300 bridges, specifically the 1310?

    kieran
    two issues
    one the Cisco AP's do not have a clock like your PC if you set the time manually when the AP loses power or reboots the time is reset to the default and you need to set it again.
    te]wo the better solution is to designate a time server for the AP to syncronize to.
    either method can be configured by clcking services on hte WEB interface and then select NTP or SNTP depending on you IOS version. then entering the time server IP address in the proper box or typing in hte proper date and time in the fields below, if you select the time server method the date and time will be filled in automaticaly once the time is syncronized.

  • How do i set the time frame of a waveform chart programmatically to be a 30 sec window or a 24 hour window

    i'm using LV7.0 and what i need to do is to be able to set the time frame or range of a waveform chart programmatically before i start taking and plotting data. sometimes this window needs to be 30s wide and sometimes it needs to be 24 hrs wide. (in the first reference, i need the chart to fill up with 30s of historical data then the whole chart scrolls with each new data point). the data acquisition records data at a rate of once per second. i've tried to use the chart properties of XScale.offset, XScale.Range.Minimum and XScale.Range.Maximum but no matter what i do the time-stamp on the x-axis is always "00:00:00 PM" and "MM/DD/YYYY" even though values are seen being plotted on the right side of the chart as expected.

    Okay, there seems to be some confusion here -- the X axis values are of type double, but they can be represented in the HH:MMS MMD:YYYY format if you want in which case it interprets the floating point as the number of seconds since 6pm Dec 31, 1903. 
    You can programmatically set this value using the XScale.Minimum and XScale.Maximum properties, but note that if you wire a waveform to the chart after setting these values the t0 parameter will override what you set using the property node for XScale.Minimum.  If instead you leave the t0 parameter empty you can use the XScale.Offset property and wire the same value in that you wire to XScale.Minimum.  Changing the amount you add to XScale.Minmum to obtain what you wire into XScale.Maximum will determine the time window size.

  • Timer works if I set the time before the current one

    Hi,
    I've got a block that is part of an actionListener that has 4 buttons, anyway I want the timer to execute something exactly at the time I set it.....but in the code that I have it also executes if i set the time before the current time
    Here's the segmant:
    private class ButtonResponder implements ActionListener
              public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent event) 
                    if (event.getSource() == exitButton)
                                  System.exit(0);
                   if(event.getSource() == setButton)
                        int hour = Integer.parseInt(hours[hourComboBox.getSelectedIndex()]);
                        int min = Integer.parseInt(minutes[minuteComboBox.getSelectedIndex()]);
                        Calendar calendar = Calendar.getInstance();
                        calendar.set(Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY, hour);
                        calendar.set(Calendar.MINUTE, min);
                        calendar.set(Calendar.SECOND, 0);
                        Date time = calendar.getTime();
                    timer = new java.util.Timer();
                        timer.schedule(new TimerTask()
                             public void run()
                                  JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "it is time");
                        , time, 5*1000);
                   if (event.getSource() == cancelButton)
                        timer.cancel();
              }So if I put zeros in hours and minutes it will execute immediately....how can I make execute at the exact time (so that if the time now is 2:00 and I set it to 1:00 it only executes the next day??

  • Can I set the time ruler in the main window to minutes/seconds/milliseconds?

    Is there a way to set the time ruler in the MAIN window to minutes/seconds/milliseconds?
    It seems that the only ruler time display option is minutes/seconds/frames/subframes.
    Or, failing that, is there a way to suppress the display of frames/subframes?
    I have already figured out how to set the main ruler to time, and the LCD to minutes/seconds/milliseconds…it's just a matter of having that in the ruler as well.
    Thanks.

    To my surprise that is not possible. Although, surprise...

    Clock control will display only the System time but you can change it by defining the 'Time Zone' dropdown in 'Display' tab of Clock properties.

  • Which computer sets the time stamp of a shared variable?

    Which computer sets the time stamp of a shared variable? The computer that hosts the variable or the computer writing the variable?
    (This is important when the system clocks differ.)
    Greetings,

    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Good Question - I have only one use case which is similiar...
    I have a cRIO which hosts a NSV library which is bound to a mirror library on the PC.  The PC library
    is set to log to a Citadel DB.  When my cRIO RT software writes values to the NSV the timestamp is created
    at the instant the write occurs using the RT system clock (which incidentally is sync'd to GPS time).  This timestamp is preverved all
    the way up to the PC and the Citadel DB.
