I have made some config changes over the past 2 days but nothign that touches any of the night time or sunrise/sunset times.
It appears none of the responses are being trigered by the built in sunrise/sunset actions - in the Misc section of comfigurator it just fires off Sunrise and Sunset responses which in turn trigger off CBUS commands. These no longer work.
Also, I have responses on external door zones that are triggered, and the first thing they check is the night status - this is no longer working either.
So my assumption is the system NightTime trigger has stopped working.
Any ideas why everything has ground to a halt ? Comfigurator shows firmware as 5.113
Update : Just downloaded the November config that was working fine, and that no longer works either - so cant be a CCL issue ?

Im pretty sure this started happening after I uploaded a config on the 29th Dec.
Previous config was 21st Dec - which worked ok - and reuploading that config didnt fix it.
Would something have gone wrong during an upload ? This is a PITA as none of my night logic works - ie auto lights, etc

This has to be due to Sunrise and Sunset times not set to what you expect
Could it be that the Sunrise and Sunset times that you downloaded are not the same as what you expected?
Can you check the ccl file, and also upload (Comfort -> PC) the sunrise./sunset times to check what is in Comfort

The sunrise/sunset times are fine. The ccl has been downloaded a few times - full complete download.
ie week 52 is 15:56. Even 6 hrs later, the nighttime flag doesnt work. Ive done an upload - comfort to pc - and they all match.
I've reset the 'location' to London - which slightly alters the times by a few minutes and done a full download - still doesnt work (its currrently around one hour before sunrise). KP04 shows the time is correct.
none of the night time functions worked this morning either. Next step ?
FYI -I added this into one of the responses that triggers lights in night mode - the counter value shows as 0 when triggered (watching via wizcomfort monitor)
If NightTime = 0 Then
Set Counter242 = 0
Else
Set Counter242 = 1
End If

Please send the file to support@cytech.biz
Perhaps the same file as the one with timer 31 not working. It may be related

None of the responses using the system Night flag were working - until this morning when it has all started working again.
Date and time are all correct. Set via Comfigurator, and HomeSeer knows when the connection to the UCM is lost - when it reconnects (within 5 mins), it automatically sets the date/time and gets the status of all inputs/outputs/etc and is updated in HomeSeer.
Perhaps its related to the new DST logic ?
To sum up, the system Night flag stopped working for the last few days of 2007. At the start of 2008, its started working again. Youd have to say this would prob happen again at the end of 2008.

Also, the Sunset response started working again today.
Consider this a bug report.

I have experienced similar problems when programming software using week numbers involving dates at the end and start of the year when the day falls into the year before or after's week number. Might be easier to give a couple of examples...
01 January 2006 fell into week 52 of 2005
31 December 2007 fell into week 1 of 2008

This is probably none related but I thought it was worth mentioning just in case.

Ive also got some logic which turns on xmas trees only in december, and up to the 6th Jan.
It's still being triggered - heres the code. Even on the 8th Jan it still triggered
If Month = 12 Then
Do XMASLightsON-DO []
End If
If Month = 1 Then
If Day < 7 Then
Do XMASLightsON-DO []
End If
End If
