Yup, I'm happy to report, that now after 48 hours or so, my comfort time still appears to be correct, and stable...

I guess the initial repetition of this problem was because the time had *always* been wrong in CBUS - ever since I first experienced the problem all those years ago, so when I replaced my CBUS-UCM - Without the application filter applied to it as was the best workaround back then, of course it allowed the still incorect time to sync through from CBUS into Comfort...

Since flashing the Wiser up to the latest firmware, that does seem to have allowed me to get that unit to behave correctly, and set the right time in CBUS - for the first time ever! - and having done so, CBUS's now correct time is syncing through to Comfort...

Panic over!

I do have one other quick question relating to DST settings though if I may... - can you remind me how the sunrise & sunset times behave through the DST change? - I have a recollection of reading a post years ago that said the times entered in Comfigurator do *NOT* have the DST offset applied to them.. - i.e. all times are in UTC?... - and thus right now, (week 17 I believe) the time entered for sunset should be entered an hour behind current BST??? - i.e. if over my house, sunset is at (say) 19:30BST, I should enter it into comfigurator as 18:30?? - is this correct? (if it is, its darn confusing!) - Or am I totally mistaken here? - should the sunset time be entered in the local time with any DST offset applied? (which is much more logical and easy to work with!)

Thanks
