The dashboard from the "ecowitt" APP displays sunrise and sunset time. If it is not showing the correct sunrise and sun time, please check the following:

1. Check your time zone settting under your device on www.ecowitt.net. Make sure DST is enabled if your area practices DST.
2. Check your location setting on the weathermap from the website of www.ecowitt.net. You can open the device editing page this way: click on "menu" - "device" - "listed device" edit button to open the "edit gateway" page. Go to "Location" and click on the map icon to open the weahter map, drag and drop your station to the correction position.
