Not Motec related, but on a couple of other GPS devices, one being a VBox it's the same It seems to read GMT all the time, and dont see an easy way to change.

The world wide GPS uses UTC so you would need to convert it to your local time zone. The CDL3 does not have the Advanced Maths functionality that would be required to convert the time from UTC to a different time zone.
The only way you could do it is with the maths in i2 Pro which would require the Pro Analysis upgrade in the dash.

GPS time is a single number in the format HHMMSS.sss. So for instance if the time is 2:30am the GPS Time channel would be 23000.000. So if you were adding 8 hours you would add 80000 to give you 103000.000 or 10:30am. You will of course have to take into account roll over at 23:59:59. You could do this via the choose function and some of the additional built in functions.
The other option would be to code it in VB or C++ and import it as a plugin. This method would probably be much easier as there is a lot more flexibility when you are directly coding the algorithm rather than trying to use built in functions. I have attached a document that details how to make a maths function.

Do you have the Pro Analysis upgrade for the CDL3?
To check, connect your laptop to the dash and in CDL3 Manager go to Online>Dash Options (Upgrades).
