Switches info and RTC Clock #15

Closed ced510xe closed 7 years ago

ced510xe commented 8 years ago

Hello I do'nt find any informations for the utilisation of the RTC or the manual switches near the screen.

Any body know somthing?

YoungAtHome commented 8 years ago

RTC allows papirus to act as alarm clock with the pogo pin reseting or starting the Pi (up to 2, not 3).

I haven't heard any Papirus users have got the switches working yet but they could be used to change the state of the display or trigger update pulls of information.

papirus-clock shows correct time so we can use that code to get the time

Some of us hope to get access to the GitHub shortly. Let us all know if you do anything with papirus. On 11 Mar 2016 11:28 pm, "ced510xe" notifications@github.com wrote:

@YoungAtHome - who wanted GitHub access?

@ced510xe - Switches are on pins 36, 37, 38, 40 (GPIO 16, 26, 20, 21)

The RTC is a Microchip MCP7940N which you can see here - http://www.microchip.com/wwwproducts/en/MCP7940N

It is actually the same RTC as is used on the Pi Face boards. You can see more info about it here - https://github.com/piface/PiFace-Real-Time-Clock

This will allow it to be used with the standard Linux hwclock functionality.

Thanks

Best would be myself, Frederick and the author if the papirus GitHub wiki (if they want).

Thanks very much, Nick On 15 Mar 2016 8:19 pm, "Aaron Shaw" notifications@github.com wrote:

@YoungAtHome - is it you who I spoke to at the Pi Party about this? Can you link me to the PaPiRus GitHub wiki?

Hi, made a short description on how to use the temperature sensor, RTC and the buttons on my blog: [http://rpiland.blogspot.de/p/papirus-e-ink-display.html]

Kind regards Frank
