NANC 264

FRS and IIS Documentation Change

Origination Date :02/01/1999

Originator:LNPA WG

Description:

A request has been made to add definitions to both documents related to “time”.

Specifically, the following should be added: 

1. Central Time (standard/daylight) – this is the time in the central time zone, that includes daylight savings time.  It changes twice a year based on standard time and daylight savings time.  The NPAC SMS runs on hardware that uses this time.

Central Standard Time – this is the time in the central time zone, as reflected in standard time ONLY.  It does NOT change to reflect daylight savings time.  This is also referred to as “network time”.

Final Resolution:

CMA to determine best place in FRS/IIS.

8/24/99 internal review, stated that the NPAC SMS performs activities in central time (standard/daylight), and doesn’t use network time.  Therefore, the second part of the definition is not applicable since it doesn’t apply to the NPAC SMS, FRS, or IIS.
