Hi Aart,  
Sorry I missed your msg.  
Question,  
What is your Timezone (Where does your Homey Live) and what time do you see in:

- [Homey Developer Tools](https://developer.athom.com/tools/system)
- in Papertrials Log
- and in your Syslog server?

I use internally and send the UTC/ Zulu time in my app ( `var logDate = new Date();` )

For me it is in [Homey Developer Tools](http://developer.athom.com/tools/system:)

> |date|“2019-03-05T20:43:20.533Z”|  
> |dateHuman|“dinsdag 5de maart 2019 21:43:20”|

and in Papertrails Log I see:

> [2019-03-05T20:43:40.035Z] test 21:43

in my Syslog server [PapertriailsApp.com](http://PapertriailsApp.com) configured for TimeZone Amsterdam (GMT+1) I see:

> Mar 05 21:43:40 [PQR-HomeyV2.0] test 21:43

and although is sounds maybe strange but this is what I expect.

If I change my [PapertrailsApp.com](http://PapertrailsApp.com) display setting to UTC (GMT+00:00) it displays as in the internal text log:

> Mar 05 20:43:40 [PQR-HomeyV2.0]test 21:43

So I guess your other things log in GMT and not in UTC

It could have to do with the configuration of RFC5424 settings: ([RFC 5424 - The Syslog Protocol](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5424))
