To: all
Lee: Thanks for the number. Yes, it works. I ordered the data sheet and it is
hopefully on its way.
Mark: I do hope I get the data sheet quicker than you did. I just want to see
how the Daylight saving time flags are set in the chip (and I guess in the
clock driver too). Seems that this beastie knows all about DST. But in this
little valley where I live, we don't. We are on the boundry between MST and PST
and rather than change our watches, we just hire a guy to more the sign
advising travellers to change their watches from one end of the valley to the
other.
So, I'd like to unset the flag in my clock so that I don't have to redo the
time every six months -- not a big deal, but fun.
BTW, I asked Motorola for their RTC data sheet, but they were out of stock. (I
called them first since they have an 800 number...) They did have some in Hong
Kong and Holland, and promised to order one from there and mail it to me when
it arrived. Wonder how long that'll be?
