Using the Program
=================
The unregistered version pops up the about window (which reminds you to register), click the "OK" button to get to the main screen.

First time user - Choose your home time zone (the time zone you live in or spend most of your time in, and which the pilot's clock is adjusted currently to). If you do not do that you will not be able to add automatic time zone changes.

1. To change manually the pilot's time to reflect a different time zone - choose a different time zone out of the time zones popup list.

2. To change the home time zone - choose your home time zone from the popup list (if it is not already set to this time zone) and from the options menu choose "set home time zone".

3. To adjust the pilot's current time and date (does not affect your time zone settings) choose from the options menu "Set pilot time/date".
   In the "Set time/date" screen you get the date button (reflecting the current date), the time changing set of buttons, the "Set" button and the "Cancel" button.
   To change the date tap the date button and choose the desired year,month,day (when you tap the day you go back to the "Set time/date" screen.
   To change the time first tap the desired portion of the time to be changed: hours, tenth of minutes, minutes. The selection is highlighted and you can change it by tapping the arrow buttons (increase/decrease).
   To apply the changes tap the "Set" button.
   To discard the changes tap the "Cancel" button.
   Changes do not take effect until you tap the "Set button".

4. To configure automatic zone changes:
   Choose the "Set Automatic Changes" from the options menu.
   In the "Set timezone changes" screen you get a list (currently empty) and the 4 buttons: "Add","Edit","Delete" and "Done".

   To define an automatic change tap the "Add" button. This takes you to the "Automatic timezones changes screen".
   Choose the desired time zone from the list (the timezone you are going to change to), set the date of the change by tapping the date button, set the time of change by tapping the time button.
   Tap the "Set change" button to set the automatic time zone change.\
   Tap the "cancel" to discard the change.

   To edit an existing timezone change, select the desired change in the list by tapping it and then tap the "edit" button.

   To delete an existing timezone change, select the desired change in the list by tapping it and then tap the "delete" button.

   To finish configuring automatic timezone changes tap the "Done" button.

Important (1-day travelers)
---------
The application always "thinks" in local time. So when you enter a new change remember that the change will take effect at the local time you specified (Which may not be at the same time zone that you are in when configuring the change.
The list is sorted by time and date disregarding zones - be careful when setting changes backwards (going west) ! If you set a time zone change in local current time to go backwards a couple of hours (For example going from east coast to west coast in the USA) be sure to set the next change more than 3 hours (or the number of hours set back) later(because the next change will be in local pacific time) , otherwise the change will be entered prior to the first change.
In simple words : quick trips of less than an hour from one time zone to another and back are not supported !!
