Re: Timezones not aligning correctly

This does not happen very often, it could be one for an hour or one for a few hours so it is fairly tricky to watch and stop. But I might try to write another code to catch all hex data for you to look at. I experienced about bad data with V4 meter and the data from V4 gets screwed up as giving out ...

Regarding CRC, yes CRC came out correctly but bad data, like the year was 18 and then I received 0 one for a while, and of course other data was wrong too.

Re: Timezones not aligning correctly

There is not enough 255 bytes and the number of bytes is random. From t...
