RTC

Before using RTC-related functions, please initialize with M5.begin().

RTC_Time & RTC_Date Structures

typedef struct RTC_Time{
    int8_t Hours;
    int8_t Minutes;
    int8_t Seconds;
    RTC_Time() : Hours(),Minutes(),Seconds(){}
    RTC_Time(int8_t h,int8_t m,int8_t s) : Hours(h),Minutes(m),Seconds(s){}
} RTC_TimeTypeDef;

typedef struct RTC_Date
{
    int8_t WeekDay;
    int8_t Month;
    int8_t Date;
    int16_t Year;
    RTC_Date() : WeekDay(),Month(),Date(),Year(){}
    RTC_Date(int8_t w,int8_t m,int8_t d, int16_t y) : WeekDay(w),Month(m),Date(d),Year(y){}
} RTC_DateTypeDef;

SetTime()

Functionality:

Sets the time of a structure variable.

Function Prototype:

void SetTime(RTC_TimeTypeDef* RTC_TimeStruct)

Usage Example:

#include "M5CoreInk.h"

Ink_Sprite InkPageSprite(&M5.M5Ink);

RTC_TimeTypeDef RTCtime;

void setup() {
    M5.begin();
    if (!M5.M5Ink.isInit()) {
        Serial.printf("Ink Init failed");
        while (1) delay(100);
    }
    M5.M5Ink.clear();
    delay(1000);
    RTCtime.Hours   = 23;
    RTCtime.Minutes = 33;
    RTCtime.Seconds = 33;
    M5.rtc.SetTime(&RTCtime);
}

void loop(){}

GetTime()

Functionality:

Gets the time from a structure.

        Serial.printf("Ink Init failed");
        while (1) delay(100);
    }
    M5.M5Ink.clear();
    delay(1000);
    // create ink refresh Sprite
    if (InkPageSprite.createSprite(0, 0, 200, 200, true) != 0) {
        Serial.printf("Ink Sprite create failed");
    }
    RTCtime.Hours   = 23;
    RTCtime.Minutes = 33;
    RTCtime.Seconds = 33;
    M5.rtc.SetTime(&RTCtime);
}

void loop() {
    char timeStrbuff[64];
    M5.rtc.GetTime(&RTCtime);
    sprintf(timeStrbuff, " %02d:%02d:%02d", RTCtime.Hours, RTCtime.Minutes,
            RTCtime.Seconds);
    InkPageSprite.drawString(10, 100, timeStrbuff);
    InkPageSprite.pushSprite();
    delay(15000);
}

SetDate()

Functionality:

Sets the date of a structure variable.

Function Prototype:

void SetDate(RTC_TimeTypeDef* RTC_DateStruct)

Usage Example:

#include "M5CoreInk.h"

Ink_Sprite InkPageSprite(&M5.M5Ink);

RTC_DateTypeDef RTCDate;

void setup() {
    M5.begin();
    if (!M5.M5Ink.isInit()) {
        Serial.printf("Ink Init failed");
        while (1) delay(100);
    }
    M5.M5Ink.clear();
    delay(1000);
    RTCDate.Year  = 2020;
    RTCDate.Month = 11;
    RTCDate.Date  = 6;
    M5.rtc.SetDate(&RTCDate);
}

void loop() {}

GetDate()

Functionality:

Gets the date from a structure variable.

Function Prototype:

void GetDate(RTC_TimeTypeDef* RTC_DateStruct)

Usage Example:

#include "M5CoreInk.h"

Ink_Sprite InkPageSprite(&M5.M5Ink);

RTC_TimeTypeDef RTCtime;
RTC_DateTypeDef RTCDate;

char timeStrbuff[64];

void flushTime(){
    M5.rtc.GetTime(&RTCtime);
    M5.rtc.GetDate(&RTCDate);
    sprintf(timeStrbuff,"%d/%02d/%02d %02d:%02d:%02d",
                        RTCDate.Year,RTCDate.Month,RTCDate.Date,
                        RTCtime.Hours,RTCtime.Minutes,RTCtime.Seconds);
    InkPageSprite.drawString(

10,100,timeStrbuff);
    InkPageSprite.pushSprite();
}

void setupTime(){
  RTCtime.Hours = 23;
  RTCtime.Minutes = 33;
  RTCtime.Seconds = 33;
  M5.rtc.SetTime(&RTCtime);
 
  RTCDate.Year = 2020;
  RTCDate.Month = 11;
  RTCDate.Date = 6;
  M5.rtc.SetDate(&RTCDate);
}

void setup() {
    M5.begin();
    if( !M5.M5Ink.isInit()){
        Serial.printf("Ink Init failed");
        while (1) delay(100); 
    }
    M5.M5Ink.clear();
    delay(1000);
    // create ink refresh Sprite
    if( InkPageSprite.createSprite(0,0,200,200,true) != 0 ){
        Serial.printf("Ink Sprite create failed");
    }
    setupTime();
}

void loop() {
  flushTime();
  delay(15000);
}

shutdown()

Function Overload 1:

Turns off the power, the device can be awakened again by pressing the PWR button.

void shutdown()

Function Overload 2:

Turns off the power, and after a delay defined by the passed seconds, the device is awakened by the RTC.

int shutdown( int seconds )

Function Overload 3:

Turns off the power, and at a specific time point defined by an RTC time structure, the device is awakened by the RTC when the hour, minute, and second match.

int shutdown( const RTC_TimeTypeDef &RTC_TimeStruct)

Function Overload 4:

Turns off the power, and at a specific time point defined by an RTC time and date structure, the device is awakened by the RTC when the week number, day, and time simultaneously match.

int shutdown( const RTC_DateTypeDef &RTC_DateStruct, const RTC_TimeTypeDef &RTC_TimeStruct)

Usage Example:

#include "M5CoreInk.h"
void setup(){
    M5.begin();
    digitalWrite(LED_EXT_PIN,LOW);
    M5.update();

    M5.M5Ink.clear();
    delay(500);
}

void loop(){
    if( M5.BtnPWR.wasPressed()){
        Serial.printf("Btn %d was pressed \r\n",BUTTON_EXT_PIN);
        digitalWrite(LED_EXT_PIN,LOW);
        M5.shutdown(5);
    }
    M5.update();
}
