This is from instructions for a public lighting system. Any help much appreciated:

Cas de l’horloge astronomique interne : c’est l’algorithme de calcul des heures de lever et de coucher du soleil implanté dans le VRI-VR qui calcul, en fonction des coordonnées géographiques, l’heure de coucher du soleil. On peut y associer un ** décalage crépusculaire ** de + 120 mm.

Thank you
