There's a website at

The Open and Major/Minor have different move rates. The Open is all in 120 minutes and the Major/Minor all in 90, both with 30 second increments.
Morning rounds start at the same time 9.45 am, whilst the afternoon round is an hour later for the Open (2.30/3.30).

Unusually the default time is 20 minutes.
