cannot set the RTC in V2.8

Post by jclark » Tue Nov 22, 2016 1:10 pm

1.) Version of Configuration Tool being used: 2.8.10546
2.) Model Number of Unit: PV750T
3.) Operating System: Windows 7
4.) When attempting to set the real time clock in a configuration that was imported from v2.7, the module reboots after the update clock command but the clock comes up at 00:00 rather than at where it was set. This feature works in V2.7 using the same PV780T.

I can send the configuration privately if needed

Hello jclark,

Thank you for mentioning this. I'm not sure when the requirement was put into PowerVision Configuration Studio, but the RealTimeClock.Set.{variable} (sorry, I'm too lazy to type out all of the variable names, but you know what they are} need to all be set to the value required.

For example, if only the Hour is being changed, the other RealTimeClock.Set.{variables} will need to be set to the RealTimeClock.{variables} prior to sending the UpdateClock action.

In the standard configurations, all of the RealTimeClock.Set.{variables} are initialized to the RealTimeClock.{variables} when the settings page gets shown, the user changes what they need which sets the particular RealTimeClock.Set.{variables}, and the UpdateClock action is sent.

If this does not fix your problem, jclark, I'll be glad to help if you have additional questions.
