The easiest way is to plug in the charger while it's turned on. Did you need something more complicated?

Perhaps it's because I always charge with the power off?
Yup, that's why I fell into the trap of thinking that the value was total system elapsed time (and a product I've worked on had exactly that).

I suppose it would be possible to write a patch to prevent it resetting on charge. I don't know what the value gets used for but the fact that power-off charging for the H1x0 has the same effect without noticable problems suggests (but only 'suggests') that this might be useful.

Yup, it can only reset on charging if it actually knows that it's been charging. That requires the power be on. ;)
Can it be manually reset?

in the View Runtime screen, just press select.

Total runtime since installation was what I thought it was too, until I noticed that it reset when the charger/external power source was plugged in and power was on.

Yes, and why not just write (or make a text file on the unit!) a list of the file names and their record start dates & times? Then you could use the filer name & length to determine end time.
