Setting the DS1302 Time keeper
Archiver

hello every body,
i' joined this group this week. lookes very nice! i started a project
with a BS2 stamp to measure the pulses from a tipping bucket
raingauge. hourley a write the amount off pulses with a time stamp
(from the DS1302) into memory. In VB6.0 i made a users program to set
parameters and read de data from the stamp. All working well so far.
BUT.....
1)in the example off the DS1302 they are using i.e. $12 to set the
time or date etc, how can i set the ds1302 time from out VB6.0?
2) how long will a 9V battery power the stamp (consuming app.6mA)?
3)what extended memory will i use (writing the time and the amount
off pulses every hour use a lot of EEprom space)
exusses for the englisch gramatica but i'm doing my best.
regards
