How does Aiir Scheduler handle daylight savings?

Aiir Scheduler can gracefully handle daylight saving time changes based on your station's location. For example, if your station in the Aiir platform is set as being in the United States, Scheduler will show additional/removed hours to match, while stations in the United Kingdom will see hours to follow British Summer Time:

Additional hours will be added or removed when required to match your station's local timezone.

You can schedule a different clock for any doubled-up hours, allowing you to make changes described below to work with your automation system.

The hour affected depends on where you are, so find your region below.
