I am wanting to make my LCD print the time (16 prong 16*2) after the code checks the set time that updates every hour and keeps time while waiting... if this cannot be done is it possible to get it to just update every loop?
Sorry for being a noob just received it a week ago...
There's a library (look in Arduino reference) that will keep time once you set it and there's a routine in its examples to do a digital clock display.
Thanks ... now can you help me figure out why the example time from serial code is always printing the hour as 2 when it is really 9 ( or really any time) and yes i put in the correct time 
How did you set the time? Even though you are using example code, it is always good to post anyway.
