var gdt = new GlideDateTime(Date);
var currDate = new GlideDateTime();
var tz = Packages.java.util.TimeZone.getTimeZone("CST");
currDate.setTZ(tz);
var timeZoneOffSet = currDate.getTZOffset();
gs.log('Convert: '+timeZoneOffSet);

What is it you want to do and how do you set the value for sysparm_user_name (and why is that a date)?

It looks like at the end you do a comparison to see if the difference is bigger then 48h?

Following will convert entered UTC date/time to CST

Script Include:

var convertDateTime = Class.create();
convertDateTime.prototype = Object.extendsObject(AbstractAjaxProcessor, {

    convertDateTime: function() {
        var parmDate = this.getParameter('sysparam_datetime');
        var gdt = new GlideDateTime(parmDate);
        var tz = Packages.java.util.TimeZone.getTimeZone("America/Chicago");
        gdt.setTZ(tz);
	return gdt.getDisplayValue();

    },
    type: 'convertDateTime'
});

Catalog Client Scripts

function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading) {
   if (isLoading || newValue == '') {
      return;
   }

    var ga = new GlideAjax('convertDateTime');
    ga.addParam('sysparm_name', 'convertDateTime');
    ga.addParam('sysparam_datetime', g_form.getValue('u_date'));

    ga.getXMLAnswer(function(answer) {
        g_form.setValue("CST", answer);
    });
   
}
