How to automatically update HMI local time for daylight savings.

If your HMI has access to the internet, you can configure the project to sync with an NTP server on a regular basis, which would allow the HMI to automate daylight savings adjustments.

If your HMI does not have internet access, you can use data transfer objects to sync the local date/time system registers with those of a connected device such as a PLC that already compensates for daylight savings.
