asterisk users - Oct 2006 - How to do Automatic Daylight Saving on Grandstream GXP-2000

Hi,
I'd set the daylight saving option to yes on all the GXP-2000 phones, but
apparantly it doesn't move it an hour back on last sunday of October. So now
I am stuck will all the phones showing the wrong time. Isn't there an option
so that it'll automatically update daylight savings?
Thanks

I don't specify it on the phone.  My Asterisk server changes it's time 
and all of the phones pick it up.

And with the change in the US next year, adding three weeks in the 
Spring and one week in the Fall, where will ALL those smart DST devices be??

If you have automated the configuration process, all you have to do is:

1)  Set option P75 (Daylight savings time) to 0 or 1 accordingly in  
the configuration file.
2) Regenerate the compiled configuration file(s).
3) Make sure they are in the TFTP or Web server.
4) Reboot the phones so they read the new configuration file.

I was thinking that this weekend as well.  What a waste.

Hi,

Firmware 1.1.1.14 for the GXP2000 supports automatic Dalight Savings 
Time adjustment (AFAIK it was introduced in 1.1.1.11).
Upgrade the firmware and add the following to your .cfg file or set via 
the webpage...

# Daylight Savings Time: 0 - No, 1 - Yes
P75 = 1

# Daylight Savings Time optional rule
P246 = 04,01,7,02,00;10,-1,7,02,00;60

See the Release Notes for the HT386, 488 and 496 at
http://www.grandstream.com/DOWNLOAD/FIRMWARE/HT386_488_496/Release_Note_HT386-488-496_1_0_3_44.pdf
for details of the Optional Rule

regards,

Drew
