Be sure you have the latest patches for your version of UCM.

I had to create a seperate Date/Time Group using a different time zone and then place the 7940's in a device pool that used the D/T group.
I was told this was due to an issue with the 7940's.
Regardless, the work around does the trick for me.
Example:
The D/T group being used by my 7941's and 61's has Time Zone: US Eastern Stander Time - (GMT -5:00) No Daylight (cant read the rest).
My workaround D/T group has Time Zone: US Eastern Standard/Daylight Time (GMT -5:00)

good job Dan, good work around. did you manually change each phones dp then?

Hope this helps.

no. I was lucky. I had three sites with this issue and all used the 7940. So I just had to associate their device pool with the new Time zone. Change the time zone as needed and reset.

I wish I could remember where I found that work around, i believe it was from another site.

I had this problem recently and I issued a call to TAC. They told me that the 7940 and 7960 have this problem from 5.x and up. they gave me a patch to fix those specific phones. I would post it for you, but it was for 7.X and not 5.X.
