I downloaded the Solutions Cubed code for the PocketWatch but it is all in
hex. I could decode most of it but not all, and I'm really not comfortable
with hex simply because I almost never use it. What he is looking for as am
I is a code using decimal or English language. I wrote Gabe at Parallax
inquiring about the code that they supply with the module but have not heard
back yet. The biggest probelm I have is how do you define AM or PM.
Will try that, Peter. Right now I can't get anywhere. Congestion I think.
I have that problem quite a bit here with the phone line access. Wish I had
my high speed cable back.
Does anyone here knows a site for the source code of interfacing the
BS2 and the Pocket watch Module?
Thanks.

If you open the datasheet you will find examples at the second page.
Example 1: Set the time to 9:46PM , may 9, 1971
If you look at the diagram you see the programming sequence.
2ms pause low
followed by 55h 00h 00h 2Eh 15h 09h 05h 47h
meaning: preamble byte (55h or 85), command set the time (00h or 0), seconds
(00h or 0), minutes (2Eh or 46), hours (15h or 21),
day of month (09h or 9), month (05h or 5), year (47h or 71)
You may use decimal values or hex values whichever you prefer.

If you can't get to the site due to a splitup url (mine was when I got the
message back from Yahoo)
Goto the homepage http://www.solutions-cubed.com/
Select products, select download, select discontinued products.
Then scroll down to the datasheets.
Here you will find the pdf files. (pocketwatch and AN-101).
I suspected it was in 24 hour format. Can't get to the download site - I'll
try again later in the day. Would really like to take a look at that code.
Thanks, Peter.

Here is some code that I wrote a while back to write to and read from a
PocketWatchB. The host mcu is a BSIIsx. I am not sure that the hex
values are correct for the date and time stated in the comments (I
changed it several times), but the communication should be fine. I
found the easiest way to convert the decimal numbers to hex values was
to use the handy microsoft calculator. You will need to tweak the baud
rate setting if you are not using a BSIIsx (faster clock than BSII).

Sorry folks. When I send email to this list from my laptop, stuff
tends to get chopped of. This is my last try. If you are interested
in the code and it doesn't work this time, contact me off list at my
other email account (cyberbiota@h...) and I will email it to you
from there.

You should read the AN-101 application (pdf file) at
http://www.solutions-cubed.com/Download%20Data/Discontinued/an-101.pdf
This contains stamp2 code (for pocketwatch, not pocketwatchB) to program the
RTC.
There is also the datasheet for the pocketwatch.
http://www.solutions-cubed.com/Download%20Data/Discontinued/pocketdata.PDF
You need acrobat reader to open those pdf files.
You can get that at http://www.adobe.com

From the pocketwatch datasheet:
The time of day is tallied on 24 hour time. For example,
the hours value for the time 7:46PM would be '19'.
So I guess you cannot set it for AM or PM.
Only 24hr format is available.
