Is Daylight Saving On ???

[Dave Byron]

This is what I want to do, set pool pump schedules according to if it is daylight saving or not.
The logic help file no help.
So in the logic I want some thing like this, syntax not correct;

if daylight saving = On then
begin
set enable group = on
else
set enable group = off
end;

then use the enable group to control the schedules.

Hi Dave,

There's no native function to get DLS, but Inbuilt System IO will do the trick:
if GetBoolIBSystemIO("Daylight Savings") = true then
...

Cheers,
Mark.

So simple when you know the answer, I tried using the wizard but no luck.
May I suggest that be put in the logic help file .

It is in the logic help file topic "In-Built System IO Variables". The index does have a reference to "Daylight Savings".

Given that there are 220 in-built system IO variables, they don't have a help file page each. Would it be worthwhile having an example for each of the in-built system IO variables?

i found the reference to it in the "In Built System" etc forgot the the dash, and got a button to show status.

Maybe when you click on the "GetBoolIBSystemIO" it should show a list of which ones it applies to.

And an entry in the index that takes you to that page, after all the keyword I was using was "daylight saving".
Just a thought.
