Issue
UTC offset attribute of a Continuum controller does not persist after controller restart.
Product Line
Andover Continuum
Environment
- CX9680
- ACX57xx
- bCX4xxx
- bCX9640
Cause
The UTC offset attribute of a controller does not persist after controller re-start.
Resolution
Create an autostart PE program in the controller to set the UTC offset using the 'GetName' function as follows
(The reason why GetName must be used is beyond the scope of this article)
getname("CX_NAME UTCOffset") = -300 stop E: Stop
*Replace the value -300 above with the appropriate UTC offset
**The E line keeps the program from getting disabled if it encounters a run time error.
