+---- Thread: Sunrise - sunset responses fail to action on last week of 2008 (/thread-1281.html)
- palmlodge - 12-30-2008
As of week 52, the Sunrise/Sunset responses dont seem to be actioning - at all. Not a time delay this time.
Also, the logic that turns on lights during night time also failed to function as of Monday 28th. This would seem to indicate that the night mode flag fails to work in Week 52. We had similar problems last year.
Last time everything worked was the sunday 28th Sunset response - end of week 51.
No changes have been made to the config.
Will these fail to work for the rest of week 52, and possibly some of week 1 ?
Running 5.145 firmware

I too have the same problem, initially thought that the X10 was not working but after tweaking an automatic lighting response discovered that the night time flag is still still at 0 after sunset time.
The problem seems to have started for me between 11:30PM on the 29th December (went to bed, hall auto-light response worked OK) and 4:30AM on the 30th December (hit the kitchen for a night time drink, auto-light response sequence failed)

That may be because Tuesday 30 December is actually the 53rd week of the year and the poor system is in limbo with regards to Sunrise/sunset
We will do testing here and find a solution

As suspected this is due to week 53, which is 30th and 31st December 2008
There was no check for weeks exceeding 52 so invalid values were used. The sunrise and sunset times will start working again on January 1st 2000, Week 1, so for tonight, you cannot depend on the sunrise and sunset times
This has been fixed and will be released in the next firmware version
This has been added to Known Bugs for firmware versions
