Hello,I use a PI4 with Stellarmate, an AZEQ6 mount, a QHY294M camera for imaging, a QHYFW3 filter wheel connected directly to the camera, a QHY5III178C camera for guiding, a focuser all controlled on VNC with PC DELL on Windows 10. I control the mount, the focuser, the GPSD and the QHY294M camera directly from Kstars which runs on the Stellarmate and the PI4. So I use EKOS and INDI drivers.For the guidance, I had problems with the internal guidance of EKOS. I use PHD2 which runs on the PI4 and is called by EKOS as external guider. Finally, for the PolarMaster camera that was conflicting with EKOS, I finally run the software directly from Windows 10. While during the winter I had no problems, the switch to daylight saving time created a problem that I can't seem to solve. In winter, my PI4 did not keep time. But the mount was using the GPSD signal to set the current time. I had chosen in Kstar that "GPSD sets the time for all devices". When the time changed to daylight saving time, the GOTO did not work anymore. We were off target every time. So I bought a Hat RCT for my PI4. It works. My PI4-SM is now on local time. So when I say "Kstar sets the time for all devices", it works. But if I ask for the time to be set by GPSD, then the GOTO falls an hour behind the target. My assumption is that GPSD does transmit that I am in UTC+2 but not that I am in daylight saving time. However, everything seems to be correct. I was able to verify my bad positioning by doing an ALIGN after the Meridian flip (see file ekos-2021-05-30T22-32-40 TXT then ekos-2021-05-31T00-32-57 TXT). Thank you for your help.Sincerely
