Appointment reminder handling day light saving time change
After DST change on 3/11, system is playing wrong appt time in message. i.e. call for an 08:00 am appt, appointment time is relayed as 6:59 or 7:14. Listed time in appt is correct and the Windows date/time is correct.
1). Please click on the time, then select Internet Time, select “Automatically synchronize with an Internet time server”, then click “Update Now”. Reboot your computer
2). You also need to update the time database for java. Please first download the java time updater program file Sun Microsystems. Upzip the file and extract it to a folder, such as C:\javaupdate.
Click Windows Start button > Run…, then type in “cmd.exe” in the Open box, then click OK. This should invoke the Windows Command Window.
Then cd to the newly created folder. type in the following command in the command window:
cd “C:\javaupdate\tzupdater-1.1.0-2007c”
Finally type in the command:
“C:\Program Files\Java\j2re1.4.2_10\bin\java.exe” -jar tzupdater.jar -u
This should automatically update the Java time database.
Stop Voicent Gateway, then Start again.
Log displays correct time but, messages still relay incorrect time (6:59 am for 8:00 am appointment, 9:59 AM for 11:00 am appt, 11:59 am for 1:00 pm appt, etc) if “Automatically adjust for daylight saving changes” is selected in Windows date/time setup.
Deselecting that option causes Voicent messages to relay correct appt time.
You don’t have to do this if you have successfully updated the Java time database.
After I updated the java time and my computer time, some of my appointments are still wrong
For appointment made after the daylight saving time change on your computer and before you
updated the java time, the appointment will have wrong time. You have to remove these appointments
and enter them again.
