Yesterday after the time change I looked in the android mobile app on my phone to see if I could tell what the clock on my EISY was set to. I couldn't seem to find it anywhere. I just wanted to make sure it was updated.

Is there any way to see the internal clock setting on the EISY that way?

Also, as a former programmer, I'm curious how IoX handles times changes like this, and how they affect programs (currently running or otherwise). I remember a long time ago a company I worked for had to stop their batch processing systems for one hour and then restart them to accommodate the backwards shift in time. Otherwise data timestamps got whacked up if I recall.

Thanks!

If you are at the latest level, go to the portal and open the new eisy-ui and you will see the settings eisy-ui

It has not been implemented in UDM, exists in eisy-ui which has remote access: https://forum.universal-devices.com/topic/47042-eisy-ui-is-getting-there-heres-where-we-stand/

I found an indirect way to verify the time. I have a program that sets several variables based on the system date and time, and updates them all day long. I was able to view those variables in UDM and confirm they were set correctly.

Thanks, and good luck with EISY-UI. I have peeked at it but still rely on Admin Console until the forum posts indicate EISY-UI is more ready for prime time.

Using a program that writes the system date and time into variables and then reading those in UDM is a sensible workaround, though it only confirms the hour and minute whenever the program last ran, not the exact clock. Given that eisy-ui exposes the setting and UDM doesn't yet, staying on Admin Console for things like this seems reasonable until the new interface matures. On the DST question, IoX scheduling concerns like programs that fire during the repeated hour are worth checking directly in the program summary, since behavior there matters more than the displayed time.

eisy-ui is prime time ready, there are only a small number of things that have not been ported from Admin. There are also new things only available in eisy-ui that could break if edited with the Admin Console.

If using 6.1.2 or greater Admin Console is deprecated. It should only be used for Insteon Advanced configuration or Program Copy to Clipboard.
