Hi. I set the AudioMoth to start recording at 10:20 AM and stop at 10:30 AM (New Zealand time). In the configuration app, I selected the New Zealand time zone. However, when I checked the configuration file, the recording times appear as 22:20 to 22:30.
Although the device recorded at the correct local time, this discrepancy could cause confusion. I’m working with over 20 AudioMoth units, each set to record at different times, so it's important that the time information remains consistent and clearly reflects the local time zone to avoid errors in scheduling and data management.
Hi Samanah,
I think you entered the schedule as 10:20 - 10:30 whilst the app was in UTC mode. Then you switched to local mode, and the app updated the times that you have entered to the new time zone (UTC+12). The times and timezone change in the schedule list when you do this. You need to set the time zone before entering the schedule times.
