Cumulus Support

I have recently purchased a ws3083, and today I noticed that the year is changing from 2014 to the 2020s. This obviously changes the day and thus affects the data sets and records. I have manually changed the year back, but after a while it is incorrect again

Does anyone know why this has started happening and how to correct it?

Any advice welcome

Thanks.

Hi,

Is it actually affecting Cumulus records? I thought Cumulus maintained its own time/date when downloading data.

However, the Console is probably receiving "bad" (corrupted by "noise") data from the Radio Controlled Clock transmitter in Germany. IMHO Fine Offset make a "poor" recommendation to face the sloping PV panel in the Solar Pod to the south (in the northern hemisphere). It's more important that the RCC antenna, which is located in the external transmitter unit, points to the RCC transmitter.

There are other threads on this forum discussing the RCC antenna and transmitter direction, but it's probably easiest just to rotate the arm carrying the external "sunscreen" assembly by about 60 - 90 degrees in either direction and see if it helps.

Cheers, Alan.
