PINK and internet time server???

fiveslo

Is it possible to use the PINK module to access a time server on the internet or maybe a intranet?· I'd like to access a time server on the internet at say 1 hour intervals to set·a DS1307 clock with my BS2p, to keep the clock accurate....· Wondering, if by using this module would such a task work????· Rob

It *might* be possible. Follow this link for a copy of the specs. You might also want to reference RFC 1305 but be warned - it's really dry reading.

Here is code for internet.

Besides the network protocol (RFC-1305) there is

the daytime protocol (RFC-867) that returns an ascii string containing date and time.
