Examples - Electronic Bricks - Electronic Brick RTC -Clock

Add a real time to your project with the RTC - Clock Brick

That program gives you a basic understanding of how to use the realtime RTC clock Electronic Brick. Connect the RTC module to the IIC connector on chassis and program the code below, then you will get a clock.
