no one has figured out how to do that yet, and it may not even be possible.

does the software that came with the station provide a way to set the 
station time from the software?  if so, then it might be possible to sniff 
the usb conversation then reverse engineer the protocol for setting the 
time.

but setting the time might be like resetting the rain counter - it is only 
possible by pushing buttons on the console.

if you could provide a list of all of the capabilities of the software that 
came with the station, that would provide us with a guide about what might 
be possible via the usb interface.  (everything we have done on the wmr300 
stations is based on sniffing the usb traffic then reverse engineering the 
protocols)

you might want to look at the comments at the beginning of wmr300.py - that 
is the best description of what we know and don't know about how those 
stations work.

(we try to do that with every driver so that everyone can benefit - even 
those who do not use weewx)
