RTC setting off by one hour when setting the time
Hi,
I am setting my RTC with a timestamp and when I read it back immediately I notice the hour setting is always off by 1 hour. I do not have daylight savings mode enabled on the RTC and I cannot understand why the hour setting is off. I thought the issue had to do with Daylight Savings and tried both the Add1H and Sub1H settings for the RTC but those did not have any effect on the issue.
Here is the log of my testing:
Write Time - 1662156522 (Timestamp is 02-09-2022 / 22:08:42)
