MWoods329 Posted June 2, 2016 Share Posted June 2, 2016 This is weird. I had to move the location of my ISY to a different outlet (just over a few feet so it could be on UPS). When it gets back up and running, it shows the system time as being ahead by one hour. The location in System Configuration is still correct, but has the wrong time zone associated with it,. For example, I'm in Michigan in the Eastern Time zone, which is GMT -5. The current time in Michigan is 4:56 AM. The ISY shows Michigan as being in Eastern Time zone, but shows that Eastern time only in Michigan is GMT -4. All of the other locations in the Eastern Time zone still show GMT-5. However, the ISY insists on setting the current time as 5:56 AM. ..Hence my alarm going off (lights turning on) an hour ahead of schedule and I have time to do this so early now that everyone is awake. To make this even stranger, when I click "Locate Me" it shows up as me being in Tennessee. It's never had this problem before and it has always pinned down my exact location when I clicked that in the past. I checked all of my computers and router which all reflect the correct time and zone. Any ideas of how to fix this? For now, I created a custom location. But also noticed that the Climate module now has my location as Tennessee as well. That's causing a problem with my programs that use climate variables already. Link to comment
larryllix Posted June 2, 2016 Share Posted June 2, 2016 You don't state what ISY version you are running. Tennessee is probably the closest listed area in the EST zone. There aren't that many preset cities listed so I have always had to use custom lat-long figures. Link to comment
Teken Posted June 2, 2016 Share Posted June 2, 2016 This problem sounds very familiar and in the past the problem was identified that the geo location was thrown off because the persons ISP (Public IP address) was indicating a different hop than their actual location. Google your public IP and determine where on the map it says it thinks your connected to. This problem was supposed to be fixed in the last several firmware builds. Link to comment

MWoods329 Posted June 3, 2016 Author Share Posted June 3, 2016 I'm on version 4.5.0 My external IP accurately reflects my location in Michigan; right down to the zip code. There are quite a few options on the list of locations closer to me than Tennessee; Detroit, Indiana, Illinois, Wisconsin.... Still doesn't make sense why Detroit would be listed as a GMT - 4 when there isn't a single city in the U.S. that's in GMT -4. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment

MWareman Posted June 3, 2016 Share Posted June 3, 2016 GMT-4 is what's displayed with any east coast location and DST selected - sunset enabling DST adds one during the summer the the -5 that applies in the winter. Link to comment

larryllix Posted June 3, 2016 Share Posted June 3, 2016 IIRC in v5.0.4 the DST is greyed out and the longitude in the custom locations has been replaced with the time zone. Link to comment
MWareman Posted June 3, 2016 Share Posted June 3, 2016 What if you toggle on DST? Central time (where I am) is -5 now, but -6 in the winter. I suspect you have this setting incorrect, as east cost should be -4 at this time of year. Darn daylight saving! Link to comment

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Is Comcast your ISP? I live in the metro Detroit area. Comcast recently swung our IP address to something completely different: It was 63.x.x.x its now 24.x.x.x They must have done it mid morning as my work vpn went nuts for no reason. When I reversed IP'd it , I showed up as Boston, but now its correct. My ISY was ok because I used google maps and manually entered the longitude of my property, US and Canada, daylight savings -5 Paul Link to comment

I dont think we are all that dense even though there are people who stay at the "Holiday Inn" The screenshot shows Seattle selected.... Either way, the box is greyed out as long as you have a 'Daylight Saving Rule' selected (which you do - 'US-Canada'). Change this to 'Off' to turn off daylight saving rules altogether to test. This could also indicate the the date is wrong. Have you confirmed this? Do your sunrise/sunset times make sense? Link to comment
larryllix Posted June 3, 2016 Share Posted June 3, 2016 Have you tried an ISY power cycle? Maybe the DST sets up automatically on reset. I wonder what Paul uses. We throw stuff back and forth at each other across the Detroit Creek. EDIT: He reported above. I hear the ISY power cycle doesn't need much peddling either. Link to comment

I have Comcast/XFinity and my IP shows in Bellevue Wa which is close/correct. How do you see what the IP timezone is though to make sure its right? My IP starts with 73.x.x.x - Cant seem to find a site that shows the IP timezone, just location. Link to comment
