XML info from Main Repeater: date and time
When I pull the XML database of this Main Repeater, the first line gives me this: <<[...]-74.0Copyright 2010 Lutron Electronics Co., Inc. All rights reserved[...]9.2.01.001/18/201616:05:43>>. I understand the 9.2.0 is the SW version, but what is the date and time that comes right after it? If it's the Main Repeater internal clock, how do we correct it? Thank you.

The timeclock and date are set by the computer when you transfer a file into the main. If you can Telnet into the main, you can use the command settime and setdate to correct it quickly. I used to use the settime to check timeclock functions- just had to remember to set it back to the correct time when I was done.

I've just realized the XML gives the date of the last transfer or firmware update. OK for Telnet, thanks for the tip.

There is also getsunrise and getsunset if you need to test astro time events.
