Hi Everybody,
Is there a way I can force a C-Bus date & time unit, namely HomeGate, to be a time master? I had a situation where I had a power failure, C-Bus went down, but everything else was on UPS or battery backup. When the power resumed, after around 20 minutes, my B&W C-Touch 's date and time was wrong, but HomeGate dutifully took it as being correct and set itself (and my PC!) to the wrong date and time. I was away from home for a week and didn't find out until today. As the PC updates it's time via the Windows XP NTP option, it didn't change back to the correct date and time as the date was wrong!
How can I force HomeGate to be a time master when it is running??
Regards,
Michael.
