How to switch between 12/24 hour format RTC DS1307

[4S7thilak]

I too is one who has found this difficult. But when I see this forum it looks like some one showing the color of milk to blind. Why not give the details from start to the end without giving so many problems, rather than trying to be smart and wise.

Well....If you have read DS1307 data sheet then you may get the idea how to set time. its simple, just go through the datasheet you will know.

 

[hobbyckts]

The DS1307 can be run in either 12-hour or 24-hour mode. Bit 6 of the hours register is defined as the 12-hour or 24-hour mode-select bit. When high, the 12-hour mode is selected. In the 12-hour mode, bit 5 is the AM/PM bit with logic high being PM. In the 24-hour mode, bit 5 is the second 10-hour bit (20 to 23 hours). The hours value must be re-entered whenever the 12/24-hour mode bit is changed.

I've read the data sheet several times but did'nt get the idea how to write to the registers....

Hobbyckts gave you the answer in post #3.
BTW, that information is at the datasheet.

Hi,

this has been discussed several times in this forum.

See the links in the box "similar threads"

may have. but no one properly explains how to do it from the beginning to the end and to where etc.,

 

[4S7thilak]

I use mikroC for pic, still they in their example even, have not explained. . .

 

[KlausST]

Hi,

Just reading the datasheet tells you all.

And in at least one other thread i explained it more detailed.
All my knowledge how to change clock setting is from the datasheet.

Please post or upload a zip file of your code, so that it maybe reviewed and additional assistance offered.

he never have given the solution. . .

every one shows the data sheet. but no one ever shows where, when and how to do this. . .

- - - Updated - - -

if you visit many sites this could be found. the above data sheet shows the chart. but dont know the code to write.

 

[hobbyckts]

Seems you don't want to work on anything & you just need the readily available code. If that is the try to Google it.

Thank you so much. This was the one I was and others looked for ...It is working.

Thank you so much. This was the one I was and others looked for ...It is working.

All of expert of this forum replied to your thread, to do it yourself while giving most important info but you should not captured them, please try to do rest yourself by respecting to them and post any issues they will help you

Hi

Thank you so much. This was the one I was and others looked for ...It is working.

Hints for your future:
* if you want code: then you first should show what you have done so far.
* if you want code, then you should say so. But you used the word code the first tim in post #11
* if you want code, then you need to say what hardware you use (microcontroller type) and what software you use (compiler). But you mentioned "pic"and "microC" only in post#8

And be polite to the people who wants to help you. Everybody who answers you invests time into your problem without the chance of gaining a reward. Show them that you worked hard to find a solution for yourself. Show them what you did so far...

Dear friend, I still struggling to get over the problem of changing between 12/24 hour modes. I did all the codes you said, nothing happens. It goes only on 24 hr mode. Can you please show the particular register and how to address to. I know its like . eg. PORTB.b6=1 is bit 6 of the PORTB is high. but there is no such possibility for this. When you write to HOUR register eg. write_ds1307(2,0x40), it connects to the time and NOT the mode. tnx.

Thanks. Sorry if I have hurt anybody's feelings. I was and still in the same boat without any proper solution.

Hi,

we tried to help you as much as we can.

But it´s on you to give us informations:

I did all the codes you said, nothing happens.

This tells nothing what you really did, what you epected and what happened instead. Its useless for us to help you.

so please:
* post your code (with included remarks/documentation)
* tell us what you want to achieve
* and give us detailed information what happens instead.


***

write_ds1307(2,0x40)

This sets bit 6 of hour register (Addr2), and for sure clears the other 7 bits.
result is:
* 12 h mode (bit 6)
* AM (bit 5)
* 0 for 10 hours (bit4)
* 0 for unit hours (bits 3:0)

added:
--> 12h mode, 0:00 AM

Dear friend, I still struggling to get over the problem of changing between 12/24 hour modes.

I have to admit that I'm unable to explain in other words differently from what was already said before.

Anyway, in order to solve the problem, why don´t you consider keep storing the time in 24 hs, but making the proper conversion by a simple code before displaying on LCD ?
