TROUBLESHOOTING: The date is wrong. How do I fix?
What is happening?
The device is showing the wrong time in startup or Device Time.
How does it happen?
The date can get out of sync if it is unpowered or underpowered . This means if you have disconnected both usb and power pins this can occur if the coin battery is insufficient to maintain time. Often the Operating status is critical offline or timeout
How can I fix?
This is managed from the Hardware menu on the System page
Check the Computer Time is correct
On the top right notice a link labelled 'Time Sync'
Press 'Time Sync'
'Success' should appear
Go to 'Device Time' - See if it is correct
In the Top Right again Press the option 'Reboot System', two lines down from Time Sync
Info should appear
After 30 seconds to a minute, check, does Start Up Time update?
Further Troubleshooting
If Supply and USB is unplugged, you power up and it continues to go to ridiculous date...
Change the coin battery in the WatchMon and try again
Note: MM8 will get their time from the WatchMon as it is a slave board. It does not keep time locally
