Set the Processor Clock

To set the processor clock you can use the RTC variables:
1) To monitor the time wire variables to all the RTC Status points.
2) To configure the time to be set, wire variables to the RTC Program points:

Hours

Minutes

Seconds

3) Preset all RTC Program variables to the time that is to be programmed:

It is recommended that you set a time of 03:00. Do not set the time to
midnight or a slow clock will always be set back 24 hours.

4) To control the time setting, wire variables to the RTC Control points:

RTC Write

RTC Read

5) Wire Variables to RTC Control:

Hours

Minutes

Seconds
