can you help with an arduino nano code

Projects Programming
1

i was trying to verify this code (its a propeller's clock project code ) but i got this message from the programme

('setTime' was not declared in this scope )

please if any one can help me with it :frowning: :frowning:

and here is the code

( it's not mine im a begenner , I googled for some projects to start with them and i have found this one on youtube )

Due to conflicts with other libraries, the Time library was renamed to TimeLib. Time for you to upgrade.

my friend i dont know anything about arduino so i you can please tell me what to do exactly :frowning:

4

I believe he is saying you need to download and install the TimeLib library to replace your old Time library.

oh now its okay :smiley: :smiley: thank you

Then starting out with a relatively complex program that you copied from the internet and don't understand at all is probably not the best way to begin learning. You'd be much better off starting with the simple examples that come with the Arduino IDE that you (presumably) installed on your computer. Go to 'File --> Examples'. Also, it wouldn't hurt to pick up a book on 'C' programming.

i will study ( C ) this year in the college so im not worry about it now im studying classic control :smiley:

now i added this ( #include <TimeLib.h> )

but there is another problem

when i tried to verify it again this message was shown now ( Error compiling for board arduino nano )

see this is the code file i got with the project

can you see it for me and solve the problems please :smiley: :smiley:

Arduino_Propeller_clock_code.ino (6.97 KB)

Now, you need to edit that last post and put your code and the error inside code tags like you did in your original post. Makes things a lot easier on the folks trying to help you.

The error suggests the you don't have TimeLib library installed (properly) in the IDE.

how can i install it please
