I'm getting a warning that my PC clock is incorrect by 7 seconds but I am using meinberg to keep it accurate. So, marbe the Server time is incorrect???Sierra Chart’s startup check says your UTC time is 7 seconds ahead of theirs, and the notice tells you to enable their NTP client. Doing that would step a clock that is 0.14 ms from NIST toward a server that is 7 seconds behind.
Include these three lines from the 07:31:51 restart, and the two checks:

Local computer time in UTC: 2026-10-08 11:31:51
Server time in UTC: 2026-10-08 11:31:44
Difference reported: 7 seconds
Meinberg ntpq -c rv: leap=00, stratum=2, refid=42.20.202.230 (NIST), offset=-0.143 ms
Google Date header versus local UTC: +0.643 s, inside the header’s 1-second resolution
I'm not going to change anything until I hear back from you
Thanks,Peter
