TRIS setting for the DS1302

[Dennis]

@Steve

Thanks for the trickle charger tip :-) now that table makes sense too :-) YAY

I added the code below (originally exactly as you gave it to me) see the updates, I haven't added all the possible options but I will so any line could be un-commented for any selection of the desired charger setup and will post the updates tomorrow sometime.

init:
'initialize the RTC and set the trickle charge rate
Low SCLK
low rst        ' Reset RTC
high rst       ' RTC Ready for transfer        
Shiftout IO, SCLK, LSBFIRST, [$8e, 0]  ' Enable write
low rst        
high rst
'Shiftout IO, SCLK, LSBFIRST, [$90, %10101011]  ' Set charger on and to "2 diodes, 8Kohm"              
'Shiftout IO, SCLK, LSBFIRST, [$90, %01011100]  ' inititial power state     
Shiftout IO, SCLK, LSBFIRST, [$90, %00000000]  ' disabled                       
Low RST         ' Reset RTC
return

Sadly the clock is still not working. I still just get a static display.
I have no buttons assigned to the clock as yet,so I didn't add any increment sub-routine..should I ?
I was hoping to just preset the time and it would start ticking away.
If I did add an increment sub-routine , would I need to add one for secs,mins,hours and day month and year ? Or just for mins and hours?

Kind regards
Dennis

Are there any other things I could try ?

Kind regards
Dennis
