Hi All

My classic has the time set for British summer time , I now need to change it to an hour earlier as the clocks haev gone back , I adjust the time or sync with my puter and load settings to the classic , Screen goes from yellow to green , times changes and the little clock on the dashboard warning the classic is more than 10 mins out of sync goes away .. All is good , Then a few minutes later the screen goes yellow again the clock re-appears and the time has reverted back to BST ..

Can anyone tell me what is happening / going wrong ? is there something I am missing ? the Classic does seem very stubborn to change the time now .

Turn OFF Time Sync in the MNGP under TWEAKS.
TMSYNC=OFF.

This just bit me today.  i switched off the PV and at the same time, bumped the battery breaker too.   I rebooted and powered up the PV, but somehow, Classic MNGP defaulted back to time sync and I got the yellow screen, and will try the control panel tomorrow at the battery shed.
Seems like all my settings stayed, but the TMSYNC=ON came on.

The Time Sync On/Off is stored in the MNGP....  Pressing ENTER should still save it to the MNGP.  I don't think it really says that it saves though.

Better press ENTER twice to be sure.

i have the same issue with the classic not wanting to remember sync off. sometimes it does sometimes not. it is just one of those minor slightly irritating things.

Press ENTER a couple of times on the MNGP.

Heck, might as well press it three times.    ;) :)
