Im using TimeAlarms library to create alarms. Im trying to set the time from my rtc module instead of manually. How can I do this? Would replacing the setTime manually line in red with this work:
DateTime now = RTC.now();
setTime(now.hour(), now.minute(), now.second(), now.month(), now.day(), now.year());
The example that comes with the library is this:
#include <Time.h>
#include <TimeAlarms.h>
void setup()
{
Serial.begin(9600);
[color=red] setTime(8,29,0,1,1,11); // set time to Saturday 8:29:00am Jan 1 2011
[/color] // create the alarms
Alarm.alarmRepeat(8,30,0, MorningAlarm); // 8:30am every day
Alarm.alarmRepeat(17,45,0,EveningAlarm); // 5:45pm every day
Alarm.alarmRepeat(dowSaturday,8,30,30,WeeklyAlarm); // 8:30:30 every Saturday
Alarm.timerRepeat(15, Repeats); // timer for every 15 seconds
Alarm.timerOnce(10, OnceOnly); // called once after 10 seconds
}
void loop(){
digitalClockDisplay();
Alarm.delay(1000); // wait one second between clock display
}
// functions to be called when an alarm triggers:
void MorningAlarm(){
Serial.println("Alarm: - turn lights off");
}
void EveningAlarm(){
Serial.println("Alarm: - turn lights on");
}
void WeeklyAlarm(){
Serial.println("Alarm: - its Monday Morning");
}
void ExplicitAlarm(){
Serial.println("Alarm: - this triggers only at the given date and time");
}
void Repeats(){
Serial.println("15 second timer");
}
void OnceOnly(){
Serial.println("This timer only triggers once");
}
void digitalClockDisplay()
{
// digital clock display of the time
Serial.print(hour());
printDigits(minute());
printDigits(second());
Serial.println();
}
void printDigits(int digits)
{
Serial.print(":");
if(digits < 10)
Serial.print('0');
Serial.print(digits);
}
