Timezone with half an hour? #2684

OmgImAlexis · 2018-05-10T09:45:23Z

Is there currently any way to set a timezone with 30 min increments?
I live in South Australia which uses +930/+1030 depending on DST.

Jason2866 · 2018-05-10T09:53:38Z

See #1192

OmgImAlexis · 2018-05-11T00:22:25Z

I tried that and it doesn't seem to be working.
The current time should be 9:52AM on the 11th of May 2018.

Hi,

I tested your case and works without problems.

I just change on user_config.h file the following:

// -- Time - Start Daylight Saving Time and timezone offset from UTC in minutes
#define TIME_DST  South, First, Sun, Oct, 2, +630

// -- Time - Start Standard Time and timezone offset from UTC in minutes
#define TIME_STD  South, First, Sun, Apr, 3, +570

I compile it and flash to a Sonoff.

Then, on the console I write timezone 99.

Console Output:

Time checked also using the website https://24timezones.com/

Your location has UTC +10h 30m, so if UTC=03:22:00, your time=13:52:00

Your DST is +10h30m = +630minutes

Please, use the above settings on the file user_config.h

Hope this solve your issue.

OmgImAlexis · 2018-05-11T22:55:37Z

Okay that's the issue. I was adding +9.5 not +930. My bad.

OmgImAlexis · 2018-05-11T23:23:10Z

So I still can't get this to work.

I'm not currently in DST time yet when I change TIME_STD nothing happens but if I change TIME_DST the time updates.

Even if I set the TIME_STD to 0 it won't change.

// -- Time - Start Daylight Saving Time and timezone offset from UTC in minutes
#define TIME_DST  South, First, Sun, Oct, 2, +570

// -- Time - Start Standard Time and timezone offset from UTC in minutes
#define TIME_STD  South, First, Sun, Apr, 3, +510

OmgImAlexis · 2018-05-11T23:23:55Z

My timezone is +930 normally with +1030 in DST. I'm also in the southern hemisphere.

According to Wikipedia my DST starts on the first Sunday in October and ends on the first Sunday in April.

ascillato · 2018-05-12T01:06:13Z

Hi,

You are right! It is giving wrong time for you.

Looking at https://24timezones.com/world_directory/time_in_adelaide.php:

We can make the following config:

// -- Time - Start Daylight Saving Time and timezone offset from UTC in minutes
#define TIME_DST  South, First, Sun, Oct, 2, +630     // ( 630 minutes / 60 minutes ) = +10.5 hours

// -- Time - Start Standard Time and timezone offset from UTC in minutes
#define TIME_STD  South, First, Sun, Apr, 3, +570      // ( 570 minutes / 60 minutes ) = +9.5 hours

Results in:

00:00:06 APP: (UTC) Sat May 12 00:21:06 2018, (DST) Sun Oct 07 02:00:00 2018, (STD) Sun Apr 01 03:00:00 2018
10:51:12 RSL: STATE = {"Time":"2018-05-12T10:51:12","Uptime":"0T00:00:12","Vcc":2.788,"POWER":"OFF","Wifi":{"AP":1,"SSId":"NetWireless","RSSI":36,"APMac":"18:D6:C7:80:38:2C"}}
10:51:47 WIF: Checking connection...
10:51:47 WIF: Connected

UTC (00:21) + STD (+9.5hs) = 09:51

But it is resulting in 10:51. That is wrong. It is using DST instead of STD. Should be using STD (starting on 1 APR)

Let's test another country from the Southern Hemisphere:
As Argentina don't use DST and STD, I can not put that as example but looking at Chile, they have DST and STD.

We can make the following config:

// -- Time - Start Daylight Saving Time and timezone offset from UTC in minutes
#define TIME_DST  South, Second, Sun, Aug, 0, -180     // ( 180 minutes / 60 minutes ) = -3 hours

// -- Time - Start Standard Time and timezone offset from UTC in minutes
#define TIME_STD  South, Second, Sun, May, 0, -240      // ( 240 minutes / 60 minutes ) = -4 hours

Results in:

00:00:06 APP: (UTC) Sat May 12 01:51:06 2018, (DST) Sun Aug 12 00:00:00 2018, (STD) Sun May 13 00:00:00 2018
22:51:14 RSL: STATE = {"Time":"2018-05-11T22:51:14","Uptime":"0T00:00:14","Vcc":2.784,"POWER":"OFF","Wifi":{"AP":1,"SSId":"NetWireless","RSSI":60,"APMac":"18:D6:C7:80:38:2C"}}
22:51:27 WIF: Checking connection...
22:51:27 WIF: Connected

UTC (01:51) + DST (-3hs) = 22:51

And it is correct. Chile is using DST now.

So, @arendst can you look at this?

Fix issue arendst#2684 DST and STD times for Southern Hemisphere

ascillato · 2018-05-13T03:12:36Z

Today Chile changed from DST to STD. But testing Tasmota on a Sonoff stays on DST. Is not correct.

Found that the code that checks for DST and STD for Southern Hemisphere had a bug on RTCSecond() routine in support.ino file

Made the PR #2714 to fix this.

Tested new code with settings for Australia, Chile and Netherlands and works fine.
