Quoted from labnip:Issue:
Time and date not set error two times in the last two days. This was after replacing the battery a couple of months ago.
Solution:
Dedicated outlet fixed mine, no problems for over a year. I plugged it in on a line with four other machines the other day and got the date/time error within a week.
This is the oddest thing: my date and time worked perfectly for the first 8 months I owned the machine. I set it once and it just worked.
After 8 months, I finally decide to splurge and pay the $200 for the color DMD upgrade. After installing the color upgrade (I already had the 2.1 code and did not need to upgrade that), I get a credit dot EVERY TIME I power on the machine. The data and time is never saved after powering off the machine. Nothing else has changed in my power, plugs, or line-up.
Weird, huh?
