Questions

How is time kept on the computer interface? Will it lose time if it isn't connected to the PC?

How does ActiveHome Pro know when Daylight Savings Time is?

Answer

Since there are enough places in the US that do not use Daylight Savings Time anyhow, AHP copies the time, date, and Daylight Savings Time settings from your computer. ActiveHome Pro is designed to keep time when running by itself. If you have Windows Update turned on, that should keep your Daylight Savings Time information in sync with whatever changes are made. If your CM15A has been running by itself for a very long time, you may want to hook it back up to the PC and run Tools-Download Timers and Macros to make sure it has the correct dates for Daylight Savings Time.
