Property Description

Time Format

Unit of time displayed in the software (in varying combinations of hours, minutes, and seconds).

Since most transit sites do not end their day at midnight, time is usually set as HH:MMapx. Apx refers to am/pm/after hours, which allows time to exceed a 24-hour clock. Military time (HH:MM) also accepts times past 24:00 hours. The latest recommended time is 35:59h or 11:59x.

Date Format Basic components of displaying the calendar date: M - month, D - day, Y - year. Select the format to be used throughout the application in the drop-down list.
Default Timeout Amount of time set that the system sits idle until the user is logged out.
