A stroke of luck i got the big program working on the board "i think it is working" my problem now is still the buttons. the program at present has // create the buttons Button menu = Button(28,PULLDOWN); Button select = Button(29,PULLDOWN); Button plus = Button(30,PULLDOWN); Button minus = Button(3...

buttons are on just need to make them change menu now. no idea where to start. i am thinking to make blinking courser that moves along row 2 and clear screen when i select then some how make it choose a start time and end time with a fade time #include <Wire.h> #include <LiquidCrystal.h> #define DS1...

now i have the 1307 clock working, and i have found a basic program that controls it, i have some led stuff on it but now l need to expand on what i have. as i learn more it gets easier, changing from pre 1.0 to 1.0 and above is going well giving me modules of code and then i knit them together, i a...

i found some code that got it working on the mega the only problem now is with the poor breadboard and wires dont seem to match each other very loose fit, if i touch a wire clock numbers go crazy. i have just been to maplin and got a proto type board so will hardwire what i can. got one program done...

it gets to 60 seconds then starts at 9 again and jumps all over. but as you said it was a fast fix.
is there anywhere i can get a library and sketch that will work with the clock please, i have spent 3 days now looking for one.

ant then it increases by 1 second a time.
so how do i get that to show on the screen

I have already done that yesterday see 2 posts above the picture,
are you saying i have purchased a screen that will not post the time from a DS1307 RTC

i am connected in to P2 on the clock
Gnd to gnd to end of digital pin slot,
Vcc to +5 top of digital pin slot,
SDA to pin 20
scl to pin 21
on the mega 2560 board

still cannot get the ds1307 to work with the lcd any help would be good please andrew i have run tests in the 1307 sample folder from the library, here are results if it helps http://www.telmal.co.uk/telsbits/ram%20demo.png Ram Test http://www.telmal.co.uk/telsbits/serial%20easy.png serial easy http...

i now have the old clock working again it seems the pins on the wires are not making contact with the breadboard if i move them gently the time changes
i will now try the 1307 clock again, i had to fit the 1302 direct to the arduino to get it to run smooth.
