rtc on STM32F407VET6 Black Board ??

[bellad]

hello,
i try of setup init RTC with :

Code: Select all

import machine
rtc=machine.RTC()
rtc.init((2014, 5, 1, 4, 13, 0, 0, 0))

TypeError: function takes 1 positional arguments but 2 were given

what is the right way to do it?

thank you

Unfortunately, it really depends on the board you're using.

Here's rshell's code which runs on most boards. You can pick the one you're using and just use that:

Yes, it looks like you need datetime iso init, here's a very similar board:

Code: Select all

$ picocom -q -b115200 /dev/cu.usbmodem3167336E34362
MicroPython v1.12-464-gcae77daf0-dirty on 2020-05-24; VCC-GND STM32F407ZG with STM32F407ZG
Type "help()" for more information.
>>> import machine
>>> rtc=machine.RTC()
>>> rtc.datetime()
(2015, 1, 1, 4, 0, 0, 0, 255)
>>> rtc.datetime((2014, 5, 1, 4, 13, 0, 0, 0))
>>> rtc.datetime()
(2014, 5, 1, 4, 13, 0, 3, 255)
>>>

Note that many API details can be inferred interactively:

Code: Select all

>>> dir(rtc)
['__class__', 'calibration', 'datetime', 'info', 'init', 'wakeup']
>>> rtc.datetime(1)
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
TypeError: object 'int' isn't a tuple or list
>>> rtc.datetime((1,2))
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ValueError: requested length 8 but object has length 2

ok , thank you

[bellad]

grrrr...

>>> rtc.datetime((2020,6,4,11,43,0,0,0))
year, month , day ,hour,minute
>>> rtc.datetime()
(2021, 6, 4, 3, 3, 0, 1, 40)

oups , year , month , day , weekday , hour , minute ,
(2020,6,4,4,11,0,0,0,0)
good

now the rtc init is good , i have put battery , but the rtc does not run on battery
exp:
with power : rtc.datetime()
(2020, 6, 4, 4, 14, 1, 32, 184)
no power on battery during 10mn
with power ( after 10mn )
rtc.datetime()
(2020, 6, 4, 4, 14, 1, 32, 184)

no change !!
