Time
Re: Time
It does not have any daylight savings time or anything. You can change it quickly from phone or portal. Ntp code can be used but it takes a lot of space and don't know many using it. Plus i think it can only query the portal...
Re: Time
Roberto,
Maybe you can throw an aspx on the portal that we can get and write a function to set the time on the RA with an offset for timezone...?

Re: Time
So make it return GMT and we can add our own rule for switching DST...or maybe theres an api for timeanddate.com ?

Not sure what they charge for an account, but we could write it in a way to avoid querying more than once a day so wouldnt be much traffic.. Either way dont think we'd need the high volume..
This would also give us the option to integrate accurate sunrise/sunset, moonrise/moonset times...

Re: Time
Ok that have small pkgs from $40 a year to $400 for everything...thats for timezone...for astronomy it goes from $50 to $300. It all depends on how many cities to support. I would pay a per month fee to get that support added to my portal options
Re: Time
If you have to create your own rules, why not have it directly adjust the clock instead of pulling from the server?
In USA, it is this:
begins at 2:00 a.m. on the second Sunday of March and
ends at 2:00 a.m. on the first Sunday of November
So, you we can just check for the day of the year and set the clock 1 hour ahead and back when it's over.
