I have recently purchased two of the GivEnergy Smart plugs and have managed to set them up...

I have created two Schedules (On / Off) to use the Timer functionality, however I have had to set the Timer to be one hour earlier than required (e.g 6:00pm) for the lights to turn On at 7:00pm.

I have checked the time setting on my iPhone and GMT / BST is correct... Is there anywhere in the GivEnergy system where I can check the setup of the time ???

Thank you for your assistance...

Paul.

On the web portal, in account settings there's a time zone field. If it's set to BST set it to GMT. GivEnergy take care of the clock change.

Your inverter may need a time sync afterwards, via the MyInverter remote control page after.

Hello, thank you for your reply...

I see the my Timezone setting are set to GMT -1 ? Should I change it to be just GMT ???

Thank you...

mrphackett if you're in the UK, then set to GMT.
