Can anyone give me the correct settings for the start and end of daylight savings time in Brazil? The official start is 00:00 on the third (3) Sunday in October and the official end is 00:00 on the third (3) Sunday in February.
I tried reading the OBi manual but got really confused, any help would be appreciated.
