RTC UI Flow - GET RTC doesn't work
-
Hi,
I am struggling with RTC module M5Unit-RTC: https://docs.m5stack.com/en/unit/rtcI know it's working, and powered on, because it responds correctly to alarm, and timer commands.
However when I try to use the GET RTC (seconds) command it fails.
I tried everything: changing it to int(), assigning a variable with the get_rtc() - nothing helpsI am attaching an example.

The behavior is as follows:
- LED turns to yellow (inicialized)
after 3 sec LED turns to Blue (the date and time is set)
Instead of going to green the LED goes to <red> the moment a line with get_rtc command is being run.
It's always the same with every other things I try. The moment I use this block the LED turns red and stops working.
I am looking forward to hearing your thoughts
Michal - LED turns to yellow (inicialized)

Hello @mickud
- which device (M5AtomLite, M5AtomMatrix, M5Stamp, ...) are you using?
- what UIFlow firmware is running on your device?
I've tried with an M5AtomLite and M5StampPico (both UIFlow firmware version 1.11.0) and using
get_rtccommand works just fine for me.BTW:
convert to intseem to be unnecessary.Thanks

Hi,
I am using Atom Lite. It's the one from ATOM Stepper Motor Driver Development Kit (DRV8825)
I am using UIFLOW(LITE) v1.9.8 downloaded using the Burning ToolI checked if the Burnning Tool would update the UIFLOW version, but I did not download the newest Burning Tool version. That must have been a mistake.
Now I downloaded the newest Burning Tool with UIFLOW 1.11.0 on board and it is working correctly.
Thank you Felix. Much appreciated!
