I am in New Zealand and I cannot set Longitude correctly.
In "Location" menu, I set:
41 12 59 South
174 47 48 East
But above this it shows as :
-41.216389
-82.799444 (this should be about 174.8000 ?)
It shows Sunrise at 23:00 and Sunset at 12.30.
I have Davis VP2 and I am using the file watching feature. WsWin is 2.91.2.
Please help.
Thank you.

Hello,
your east-coordinate is not allright. You have to use no negative value.
Type in 174 47 48 and not
-174 47 48
But in the south coordinat you have to take a negative value, that means
-41

Yes, I have tried that. But it is still wrong.
If I enter 174 47 48 it shows as -82.799444.
Can you try on your PC to see what I mean ?
Thank you

Hello,
I fear I can't help you.
There's no problem. When I enter -41 12 59 it is shown as -41.216389
and when I enter 147 47 48 it is shown as 147.796667
What version of WSWIN do you use?

So do I. No problem here. The coordinates are right. I had to switch the timezone of my windows and then to restart WsWin to get the correct sunrise/sunset time. But then it worked perfectly. All with the latest version of WsWin.
Greetings to Wellington.

Hello,
you have used "north" and not "south"
You must take -41 and not 41

Hello,
I think, you'll have to wait, till Werner Krenn answers. I cannot reproduce the mistake, sorry.

Same here. Seems that Werner has to update the demo. Looks like a fixed bug in the full version.

Hello,
is a bug in the Demo-Version.
In the registered Version no more.

Hello,
With purchased version it is better, but sunrise and sunset times are wrong by 1 hour exactly. Does wswin take into account day light savings ? I have tested changing system clock and system daylight saving settings but still the same.

Hello,
the program uses your Windows settings - so check here.
Under Weather, Sun/Moon you can see what the program uses.
