Hi, I have a problem design with Ignition.

1.- I have a computer where Ignition is installed, I put an Easy chart with some tags on real time and saved my proyect.

2.- I have a client connected to my gateway computer showing the correct timestamp in the easy chart, but when I change the time in the Client, the timestamp in the easy chart change.

The client timezone is diferent to the gateway timezone, the time is diferent too, but I want the easy chart to show the gateway time. Is there a way to do this?

You could bind the chart’s time fields to reflect the System/Gateway/CurrentDateTime tag.

That doesn’t work either, when the client change the hour manually, the timestamp is affected.
