Hi,

Hi,

DLMS standard defines that deviation is from normal time to UTC, not UTC time. Your meter is using UTC time. Select meter properties and check "Use UTC time zone, not standard".

Now you can see the correct date-time value.

Hi Ashok,

Hi Ashok,

Have you selected "Use UTC time zone, not standard" from the device settings? It's in the Advanced tab.

BR,
Mikko
