FOXSI-4 data timing has been really tricky to figure out, because there is no central clock for all systems, and many systems used local Unix time. Unix time resets with each processor restart, and timing must be done by syncing on uplink command logs.
Fix
It would be easier to at least be able to set the Formatter local clock (used for time-tagging logs) with an uplink command.
