Hello :D

Thanks for providing and supporting this very helpful board.

How can we tell the difference between 02:30 in the morning and 02:30 in the afternoon, as displayed by the board?

I can't find anywhere in the user control panel to set the time format to 24 hour clock or to display AM and PM.

    The board is set for 24 hour time, for Arizona (-7 GMT, no DST).

    Thanks. Understood, makes perfect sense. Catkin's date and time options (http://forum.solar-electric.com/profile.php?do=editoptions) are set to GMT +5:30 so board times are displayed in my local time and it's great -- it looks like you guys stay up all night posting. Such dedication!

    But the board shows 0230 hours and 1430 hours as 2:30 so I can't tell the difference between them. Most other boards I use allow the user not just to set their time zone but also their time display format. My preference is a 24 hour clock. Adding AM or PM would disambiguate, too.

    Is this possible here? If so, where is it?
