setAlarm()

####Description Set an alarm to be triggered on SQW pin: alarm1 has a precision of seconds; alarm2 has a precision of minutes (second parameter will be ignored).

Alarms sets gpio.LOW over the SQW pin and let it unchanged until reloaded. When reloaded sets gpio.HIGH. Alarms trigger only once, after that, if you want them to trigger again, you need to call reloadAlarms() or setAlarm(...) again.

Alarm type set the alarm match conditions:

  • ds3231.EVERYSECOND works only with alarm1 and triggers every second;
  • ds3231.EVERYMINUTE works only with alarm2 and triggers every minute (at 00 seconds);
  • ds3231.SECOND triggers when time match given seconds parameter;
  • ds3231.MINUTE triggers when time match given seconds and minutes parameters;
  • ds3231.HOUR triggers when time match given seconds, minutes, and hours parameters;
  • ds3231.DAY triggers when time match given seconds, minutes, and hours on week day date/day parameters;
  • ds3231.DATE triggers when time match given seconds, minutes, and hours on date (day of the month) date/day parameters;

####Syntax setAlarm(alarmId, alarmType, seconds, minutes, hours, date/day)

####Parameters alarmId: 1-2
alarmType: 1-7
seconds: 00-59
minutes: 00-59
hours: 00-23
date/day: 01-31 or 1-7 (Sunday = 1, Saturday = 7)

####Returns nil

####Example

ds3231=require("ds3231")
ds3231.init(3, 4)

-- Setting PIN1 to triggers on interrupt when alarm triggers
gpio.mode(1,gpio.INT)
gpio.trig(1,'down',function(level)
  print('Time is passing')
  -- If not reloaded it will be triggered only once
  ds3231.reloadAlarms()
end)

ds3231.setAlarm(2,ds3231.EVERYMINUTE)

-- Don't forget to release it after use
ds3231 = nil
package.loaded["ds3231"]=nil

reloadAlarms()

####Description Reload an already triggered alarm. Otherwise it will never be triggered again. There are two different alarms and they have to be reloaded both to let, even only one, to be triggered again. So there isn’t a param to select which alarm to reload.

####Syntax reloadAlarms()

####Parameters nil

####Returns nil

####Example

ds3231=require("ds3231")
ds3231.init(3, 4)

-- Setting PIN1 to triggers on interrupt when alarm triggers
gpio.mode(1,gpio.INT)
gpio.trig(1,'down',function(level)
  print('Time is passing')
  -- If not reloaded it will be triggered only once
  ds3231.reloadAlarms()
end)

ds3231.setAlarm(2,ds3231.EVERYMINUTE)

-- Don't forget to release it after use
ds3231 = nil

enableAlarm()

####Description Enable an already setted alarm with the previous matching conditions. It reloads alarms internally.

####Syntax enableAlarm(alarmId)

####Parameters alarmId: 1-2

####Returns nil

####Example

ds3231=require("ds3231")
ds3231.init(3, 4)

-- Trigger on x:20:15
ds3231.setAlarm(1,ds3231.MINUTE,15,20)

if badThing == 1 then
  ds3231.disableAlarm(1)
end

if goodThing == 1 then
  ds3231.enableAlarm(1)
end

-- Don't forget to release it after use
ds3231 = nil
package.loaded["ds3231"]=nil

####See also - []()

disableAlarm()

####Description Disable an already setted alarm with the previous matching conditions.
if alarmId is not 1 or 2 it disables both alarms.
Warning: disableAlarm() prevent alarms to trigger interrupt over SQW pin but alarm itself will triggers at the matching conditions as it could be seen on status byte.

####Syntax disableAlarm(alarmId)

####Parameters alarmId: 0-2

####Returns nil

####Example

ds3231=require("ds3231")
ds3231.init(3, 4)

-- Trigger on x:20:15
ds3231.setAlarm(1,ds3231.MINUTE,15,20)

if badThing == 1 then
  ds3231.disableAlarm(1)
end

if goodThing == 1 then
  ds3231.enableAlarm(1)
end

-- Don't forget to release it after use
ds3231 = nil

getBytes()

####Description Get bytes of control, for debug purpose, and status of DS3231. To see what they means check the Datasheet

####Syntax getBytes()

####Parameters nil

####Returns control: integer. Control 0-255 status: integer. Status 0-143 (bit 6-5-4 unused)

####Example

ds3231=require("ds3231")
ds3231.init(3, 4)

control,status = ds3231.getBytes()
print('Control byte: '..control)
print('Status byte: '..status)

-- Don't forget to release it after use
ds3231 = nil
package.loaded["ds3231"]=nil

resetStopFlag()

####Description Stop flag on status byte means that the oscillator either is stopped or was stopped for some period and may be used to judge the validity of the timekeeping data. When setted to 1 this flag keeps that values until changed to 0.
Call resetStopFlag() if you need to check validity of time data after that.

####Syntax resetStopFlag()

####Parameters nil

####Returns nil

####Example

ds3231=require("ds3231")
ds3231.init(3, 4)

control,status = ds3231.getBytes()
if bit.band(bit.rshift(status, 7),1) == 1 then
  print('[WARNING] RTC has stopped')
  ds3231.resetStopFlag()
end
