Hi all,
I've seen an issue with the timer policy between EEM versions. The absolute timer "time" field is supposed to be the number of seconds since January 1 1970. This is the behaviour i am seeing on EEM 4.0.
I have 2 older devices, a 3600 and a 1700 that i am testing with and I am seeing different behaviour.
When i view the configured policy it shows the date as being 26 Jan 1970 whereas the same policy on the device with EEM 4.0 shows the date as being today.
Was there a version of EEM where the meaning of the time field was changed, e.g. went from milliseconds since epoch to seconds since epoch or could there have been a bug with earlier EEM versions?
