Z Commands

Z commands enable you to make a clock window display the current time in any timezone. Domestic timezone are available for quick selection on the Clock Menu. To change the time display to a non-domestic timezone, use the following tables and the timezone map to identify the Z command that gives you the timezone you want. Then, using the command line, enter the Z command in your clock window. The first twenty-seven Z commands give you timezones that do not observe daylight savings time rules.
