Interesting, can you check what’s the OS/patch version on the MP2000? What comes to Einstein, it has some own logic to deal with the Y2010 problem, but Matthias and I need to check how that needs to be updated or changed. I am testing the updated patch with that logic removed to be closer to real hardware.
