I just want to confirm......so, as I understand the profilux cannot actually auto adjust the time for daylight savings? It requires the software setup using a timeserver or a manual adjust?

yes
Do you not find this a little pathetic for such an advanced controller..... The only clock device that did not auto adjust was an old grandfather clock we have.....even my alarm clocks will auto adjust......I find this to be extremely bizarre!! You may close this thread now.

There are two ways for your clock to do so - DCF77 or a date/timetable adjustment.Quote:
even my alarm clocks will auto adjust
- For first case: A DCF77 module is available as addon for the profilux - so networkless operation is possible wherever DCF signal is available
- For second case: This is not capabable for the Profilux due it´s sold worldwide.
Daylight saving dates are different over the world (even between USA and Europe) and you can´t know where it´s used.
I´m sure a country-depended firmware would confuse much more than a not really accurate clock
Is your alarm clock also able to spread a time change over a couple of days, maybe a week, to have less effect to your fishes?
In my opinion this function is worth much more than an independent automatic time change
BTW: I know some people who never change the time for such kind of clock due the effort is highter than the result.
Hmm, my watch ($8,000 Breitling) ,oven ,microwave, television can't adjust for daylight savings, or that matter the hard drive recorder, car and the list is very long?
Operating systems for smart phones ipads computers etc, have complex software and lots of memory to play with to produce these sort of nice to have items. I thing GHL would very much like to have the resources Microsoft or Google can commit to their software products, and they have only just started getting into the hardware? But with the amount of product sold, I guess that would make our controllers around $100,000, as not every home wants two of these (or more).
Gunther,
I do understand why this system does not have automatic change over and I can quite easily live without it. However I live in NZ and the NPT system does not work in our daylight savings. The PIII system does not allow 13 hours ahead of GMT as 12 is the limit (+12 being our normal time). Therefore when I do connect to NPT during summer it is one hour behind. (Perhaps another item to add to the already large fixes and enhancements package)
I do like to change the time on the controller as the measurement functions come through with a time stamp, so we can see when an event occurred! Now I am very used to moving around the world and adjusting to different time zones, but it helps if the P3 is set to the normal time where the tank is located. (My home)
So this is a bug report, I think. Due there are not that much customers from NZ, I think this problem (which is only relevant in your area) isn´t reported to the developers yet.Quote:

Maybe it can be fixed in one of the next firmware releases.
You are hijacking my thread. This is off topic and the thread should now be closed like the others......
