Defining Time zone issues

[jthebl]

Hey Everyone,

Having issues editing the time zone used in the file summary reports. I have updated the following parameters (and this is confirmed by the same values set in my config.csv file):

desiredtz, configtz, rmc.desiredtz, rmc.configtz

I am running my analysis in a time zone 8hrs different from that of the data collected with the devices and am having trouble reviewing these visual reports with this notable shift in the sleep periods in reference to the clock. Any ideas what I am missing here? I am assuming the file summary reports are impacted by the above parameters (i.e. the "Timezone" value can be adjusted manually).

Thanks!
Joey

Thanks for sharing this link @vincentvanhees! I will do my best to more effectively share my questions/trouble-shooting issues in the format/process described there 👍

Not a complete solution but I found that updating my system's timezone (i.e. the time-date labeled on my computer) does appear to dictate (or at least direclty impacts) the timezone reflected in the file summary report outputs.

The documentation clearly states that issues should be reported in the issue page and preferably with a detailed description of the problem, which means including R code used, and information about the context. I will close this issue now as you do not seem interested in making that effort.
