Command STO

This command is used for enabling the Daylight Savings Feature for use with the device.

Command DST

These commands are used to adjust the time information. Example: in report message, e.g.
Daylight Savings Time: It is the practice of advancing clocks during the lighter months so that evenings have
more daylight and mornings have less. Typically clocks are adjusted forward one hour near the start of spring and are
adjusted backward in autumn.
In the case of the United States where a one-hour shift occurs at 02:00 local time, in spring the clock jumps
forward from the last moment of 01:59 standard time to 03:00 DST and that day has 23 hours, whereas in
autumn the clock jumps backward from the last moment of 01:59 DST to 01:00 standard time, repeating that
hour, and that day has 25 hours. A digital display of local time does not read 02:00 exactly at the shift to
summertime, but instead jumps from 01:59:59.9 forward to 03:00:00.0. In the European Union, on the other
hand, since the shift occurs at 01:00 UTC, the autumn shift happens an hour later than the spring shift, local
time.
