Can't get the darn thing initialize.

How do you set the correct time?

I'm loosing it here, help. What programmer are you using to up load the sketch. I'm not sure my FIDI board is working so I'm programming the Mini Arduino Pro with an Uno. This setup works because I loaded and ran the Blink program with no issues.

I've put the project together again and now I'm having problems with the data displayed.All I get is a date of: "Monday 165/165 45:165" and the temperature of: "-1.75C, -1.75C, -1.75C. I've tried other DS3231 modules, switched batteries, I've even unplugged the DS module completely and I always get the same readings.Any suggestions out there?

I have a couple of questions about your "Universal USB Keyboard with RGB Switches." Cool project, looks useful. In the text portion of the Instructable it talks about a TLC5904, while in the schematic it shows TLC5940, and it shows 2 28 pin ICs. Your PCB indicates only 1 IC with 24 pins.The other question I have is, I don't see the interface with the Arduino Pro Mini. You wouldn't happen to have a Fritzing of your diagram, and a more detailed PCB design?

Love the useless machine. Have you had tome to creat another Instructable around it?
- DennisB36 commented on ludektalian's instructable Speed HeadUp DisplayView Instructable »
This is a neat project and not too difficult. I did have some problems with it to begin with but Ludek and I worked it out. The most recent code is version 7. Can't guarantee anything before that. First my receiver wouldn't lock on to satellites I found out that it was, I just didn't know what information is contained in a GPS sentence. A google of GPS sentence breakdown helped a lot. Secondly, Your supposed to get a $ at the beginning of the sentence. I never got one. third and this was the biggest problem I had. My 8x16 display was offsetting too far to the right and the display was not inverted to make a readable display on the windshield. After trying to run some of the other MD_Parola examples and finding they were garbled. I found an article on the internet that told how to run a te…

I'm having problems compiling your sketch. I'm getting:error: void value not ignored as it ought to be done = radio.read(msg, 1); ^I've followed your code exactly as you have it with the exception of the CE, CS pins are 7 and 8. and are noted so in my sketch.Any thoughts?

Has anyone found a way to turn down the brightness on this project?
- DennisB36 commented on educ8s's instructable Arduino Temperature Monitor and Real Time Clock With 3.2" DisplayView Instructable »
Can the temperature be changed to Fahrenheit, and where in the code is it best to do this?
- DennisB36 commented on CarterW16's instructable Scrolling Text on a 8x8 LED Matrix Using an Arduino UNOView Instructable »
This works great, except the text scrolls bottom to top on an 8x32 display instead of across(32 wide by 8 high) it. Am I doing something wrong? It's like 4 rows of text zipping by from the bottom to the top (top to bottom depending how your holding the display.)
- DennisB36 commented on jeffreye's instructable 16x128 Display Showing Date, Time, Temp, HumidityView Instructable »
At the beginning of the sketch remove the #include <Time.h> entry, and re-include it. You should then have an "#include <Time.h>" and a "#include <TimeLib.h>". That should take care of the 'tmElements_t' error.

Jeffreye, Help! how the heck do you change the year in this sketch. There are a couple of us out here scratching our heads trying to figure out how to change the year. I've uploaded and incorporated your time setting code, and for the most part it works, thanks, but I can not for the life of me change the year in the date line.

Nope, can't change the year it's really driving me nuts. If anybody out there has a solution, please give dancopy and I a reply. Thanks

Okay, I'm into brain meltdown. I cannot adjust the M/D/Y no matter what I set it at in the Set Date/Time module you sent me it refuses to reflect the change.
- DennisB36 made the instructable 16x128 Display Showing Date, Time, Temp, HumidityView Instructable »
I got this working, sort of, I can't set the time, no problem but I cannot set the date. The code makes reference to a pin 12 to set the date(see images below), but there is no reference either in the Instructable, or the Fritz file. Has anyone else seen this or dealt with it?

I've setup the code as downloaded on my Mega 2560 board and looked at the change recommendations below but all I get is a single line at the bottom of bright red LED's. Help, I'm fairly new at working with these large (64x16) LED arrays.

I'm not being able to compile your code. It's hanging up on this piece of codeI'm not familiar with "showDigt() syntax.clr();for(i=0; i<num; i++) { if(digtrans[i]==0) { dy=0; showDigit(dig[i], digPos[i], dig6x8); } else { dy = digHt-digtrans[i]; showDigit(digold[i], digPos[i], dig6x8); dy = -digtrans[i]; showDigit(dig[i], digPos[i], dig6x8); digtrans[i]--; } }
