SC4S Timestamp Extraction for Custom Inputs

Hi, 

I created my custom input (mytest.conf.tmpl) by coping the /opt/sc4s/local/config/log_paths/lp-example.conf.tmpl. When I send following event to SC4S from port 5144, timestamp is extracted as attach "1/28/21 4:31:30.000 PM" . I see that timestamp is extracted by adding three hours to this (Jan 28 13:21:30 )

However when I read from file mytest123.log, as you can see timestamp is extracted correctly 1:21:27 PM.

 

props.conf for mytest123.log

[sc4s:forcepoint]

TIME_PREFIX= \srt=

MAX_TIMESTAMP_LOOKAHEAD=15

 

How can I extract timestamp correctly? 

Thanks,
