George Hong.
George HongHello,
I am trying to change the time zone in my gateway from UTC to US Eastern. The console show the change took place but when it sends the timestamp is still in UTC mode. I did a factory reset and it is still doing the same, please help. Thanks.
Jeff HatchGeorge,
Which timestamp are you referring to?
Jeff
George HongThe one I see in node-red.
Jeff HatchGeorge,
Javascript provides the Date.now() method is being used by the inject node. I’m assuming that you are using the inject and seeing the UTC timestamp. By definition from the documentation on the Date object:
Date.now()
Returns the numeric value corresponding to the current time – the number of milliseconds elapsed since 1 January 1970 00:00:00 UTC, with leap seconds ignored.
This means that you are always going to get a UTC time unless you convert the value through some other function to the local time you are in.

George HongJeff,
Thanks for the quick response. I am using the LoRa out node and watching the debug window in node-red. We have 4 gateways and 2 units I was able to configure and puts out US Eastern time, the other 2 does not. All the gateways are the same part number.
