ACII Time Problem

[RustySnail]

Curt-

My ACII keeps resetting the time index. I have had this happen more than once now; the problem is the following:

The datalog gets reset.
The "Actual Time" gets set back to the "Tank Time" (on my system tank time is -8 hrs relative to actual).
All controlled devices get reset to auto

What's happening? This seems to happen when the datalog is getting 'full'. Is a full datalog the cause?

It sounds like the controller is resetting itself. If the AC2 ever detects an internal inconsistency, it will reset itself. Most likely the cause of this is power spikes/surges. Make sure that the controller is plugged into a surge protected power strip. Move the AC2's power cord away from other cords (especially pumps/powerhead, and other switching inductive loads), and coil up cords to make them as short as possible.
