Hi Can I Do alarms with this and how?
sorry very new to RTCds1302 and coding

[Makuna]

@nickemp The DS1302 chip doesn't have alarms; so, I can't support something that isn't there. You could always look for a timer library to give you that support if you don't want to use another RTC. DS3231 & DS3234 both have alarm capability and are supported.

@nickemp latest release now has an alarm manager that doesn't rely on a feature of the RTC module.
