Configuration UTC incorrect

Hi,

I am trying to configure an audiomoth to launch and the configuration app has the wrong UTC. I am in UTC - 5:00 time zone. It is currently 15:21 and the audiomoth configuration app says that the UTC - 5:00 time is 19:20. Any help on troubleshooting this would be appreciated. I am not sure what to do as my computer's time is right and I was able to launch an audiomoth earlier today with no issues with the time zone.

Thanks,

Erin

Hi Erin, Can you post a screenshot and confirm what operating system and what version of the Configuration App you are using. The time on the dispaly is the time from the device. When you press 'Configure AudioMoth' it will update and then should show the correct time. Alex

Yes. When the batteries are removed from AudioMoth it will lose the time setting. When it first powers up, either from batteries or plugging into the USB socket, the internal time will reset to zero, which corresponds to 00:00:00 01/01/1970 UTC. The AudioMoth time is what is shown on the display. Not the time on your laptop. When you press 'Configure AudioMoth' it sets the time on the AudioMoth and the time will then be correct.

You should also use the Flash App to update the firmware on this AudioMoth. Version 1.5.0 is quite old now and

Thank you. Sorry if this is a dumb question but where do I get the flash app to update the firmware?
