Simulator Throws Invalid date time error. Actual device works fine in Director

Console output:
C:\Users\admin\Downloads\Gurux.DLMS.Net-master\Gurux.DLMS.Simulator.Net\bin\Debug\net8.0>Gurux.DLMS.Simulator.Net.exe -p 1000 -x sim1.xml -t Verbose -N 10
DLMS HDLC Logical Name simulator start in Tcp ports 1000-1009.
String '01/10/1900 00+00:00' was not recognized as a valid DateTime.

My simulator throws this error and I followed the stacktrace. The sim.xml file is from a device that is still currently in development and that i have no control over.

I tried debugging and following the stack trace which is as follows:

DLMS HDLC Logical Name simulator start in Tcp ports 1000-1009.
String '01/10/1900 00+00:00' was not recognized as a valid DateTime.

I didn't want to mess too much with the GXDateTime class since my goal right now is to simply run the simulation. Hence this filthy solution... I took a previously accepted value and hardcoded it to overwrite the value that keeps calling the error.

(\Gurux.DLMS.Net-master\Development\GXDateTime.cs:line 171)

public GXDateTime(string value, CultureInfo culture)
: base()
{
if (value == "01/*/1900 00Z")
{
value = $"01/27/2025 07:46:14Z";
}

Worked well enough to run the simulation. But using the actual hardware I never noticed this error using the Director. I thought maybe it was something like ArgumentOutOfRange but I guess not??
