Hi, I am based in Perth, Western Australia in the AWST (GMT+8) timezone and running weewx on a Debian machine with correctly setup timezone:
graham@rochelle:~/dev/asystem$ cat /etc/os-release PRETTY_NAME="Raspbian GNU/Linux 8 (jessie)" NAME="Raspbian GNU/Linux" VERSION_ID="8" VERSION="8 (jessie)" ID=raspbian ID_LIKE=debian HOME_URL="http://www.raspbian.org/"; SUPPORT_URL="http://www.raspbian.org/RaspbianForums"; BUG_REPORT_URL="http://www.raspbian.org/RaspbianBugs"; graham@rochelle:~/dev/asystem$ date Thursday 1 December 08:23:21 AWST 2016 The Vantage is also setup timezone wise correctly and think that weewx might do something on this in any case. My issues is that I am unable to make head nor tail of the epochs I am getting out of the Vantage loop packets, there doesn't seem to be a timezone offset that would make sense of these, does anyone know how I can interpret them? The UI seems to do fine, although not sure if it is using the Vantage for this or its own internal calculations. If the later, is there a nice way I can get access to this (and other almanac details) from within a custom service? sunrise from loop packet: 1480602360 sunset from loop packet: 1480552860 sunrise from loop packet formated: 01/12/2016, 22:26:00 AWST sunset from loop packet formated: 01/12/2016, 08:41:00 AWST sunrise from UI: 05:02:10 sunset from UI: 19:07:23 Thanks for your help, perhaps I am missing something obvious, I always find time hard! Graham
