VM:Webserver for OfficeVision Release 1.0 Help System
OfficeVision lets you enter times in many different formats. These formats, based on either a 12-clock or a 24-hour clock, are:
Format | Examples |
hhhh | 4, 10, 21, 24 |
hhmm | 230, 1045, 1730, 2400 |
hh:mm | 2:30, 10:45, 17:30, 24:00 |
timeAM or timePM | 4AM, 230PM, 10:45 PM |
The following rules and assumptions
apply to entering times:
- If you do not specify AM or PM with times, VM:Webserver for OfficeVision assumes:
- The end time is later than the start time
- 7:00 to 11:59 is AM
- 12:01 to 6:59 is PM
If you want to enter times before 7:00 AM or after 6:59 PM using a 12-hour clock, you must specify AM or PM. - If you do not specify AM or PM with 12 (or any other form of 12), VM:Webserver for OfficeVision assumes you mean noon. To schedule an event at midnight, you must specify:
- 0
- Some form of 12 with the keyword AM (for example, 12:00AM)
- Some form of 24
- MIDNITE
- When specifying AM or PM, do not type periods between the letters. For example, do not type 9:00a.m. or 9:00 a.m.
- You can enter times using a 12- or 24-hour clock format. However, times display in one consistent format, as specified in your OfficeVision configuration. It uses either 12-hour clock format (for example, 1:00AM or 3:00PM) or 24-hour clock format (for example, 01:00 or 15:00). For certain times in 12-hour clock format, a keyword (for example, NOON or MIDNITE) displays.
